Biden Faces Rebellion Over 2024 Primary Calendar

“Democrats on Friday faced a rebellion from their own leaders in New Hampshire, Nevada and Iowa as party officials in these states said publicly that they were not prepared to accept President Biden’s push for a new presidential nominating calendar in 2024,” the Washington Post reports.

“Biden shocked many in his party on Thursday evening by asking for a complete remaking of the early nominating calendar, with South Carolina going first, followed by Nevada and New Hampshire on a joint date, then a primary in Georgia and one in Michigan. The plan, which is likely to be ratified soon by a key party panel, would eliminate Iowa’s historical role of kicking off the nation’s presidential nomination season by holding its caucuses.”
