Big-name Democrats are appearing in New Hampshire to sing Joe Biden’s praises as the president stays away.
But Biden has created a quandary for himself in the state. He pushed last year to strip New Hampshire of its prized first primary status and replace it at the front of the 2024 nominating calendar with South Carolina, a more diverse state that propelled him to the nomination in 2020. The Democratic National Committee approved the president’s plan, which would see New Hampshire share the second primary date with Nevada.
“It’s good news for the primary that these rising stars would go to New Hampshire of all places,” said Democratic consultant Chris Moyer, who ran communications for New Jersey Sen.’s presidential campaign in the state and is now working on Cinde Warmington’s gubernatorial bid here. “I don’t care what people are talking about in Washington. We’re going to have our primary. Democrats are going to come out and vote, and it’s going to be the first primary,” Kathy Sullivan, a former New Hampshire Democratic Party chair and DNC member, said in an interview.
Sanders picked up the slack on Saturday in front of an at-capacity crowd at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics.
