The 1980 Democratic National Convention had approximately 74 openly gay or lesbian delegates. The previous convention in 1976
had only 4. The 1980 convention was also the first time that an openly gay man had been nominated for one of the two top positions
of either major political party.

Gay Caucus or of members of the caucus.
