Tuesday 6 February - Saturday 16 March 2024: North Dakota Legislative District Conventions convene to elect delegates to the State Convention.

Participation in North Dakota's delegate selection process is open to all voters who fill out a form declaring they are a Democrat. North Dakota has neither party nor voter registration.

Almost all of the voting is by mail with limited exceptions for the Fort Berthold, Turtle Mountain, Standing Rock, Lake Traverse, and Great Sioux Reservations. There will be no in-person voting, except for residents of the reservations where there will be a polling station in place for 1 day. Ballots must be received by noon on 30 March 2024 to be counted.

Saturday 30 March 2024: North Dakota Party-Run Primary. Delegate Pledging: Proportional Primary. Voter Eligibility: Open Primary. Voters can cast their ballot at party designated locations throughout the state on Party-Run Primary Day or by mail.

The Party-Run Primary will use Ranked Choice Voting. If a candidate has officially ended their candidacy, the voters' next choice is tallied (recursively). If a candidate has not met the viability threshold, the candidate with the lowest rank is eliminated, and their votes are redistributed to the voters' next choice (recursively) until only viable candidates remain. The viability threshold is 15% - if no candidate reaches the 15% threshold, the threshold is half the percentage of the vote of the highest vote-getter.
