Breaking news: Democrats approve Biden plan to make South Carolina the first primary in 2024
DNC leaders to move up South Carolina, which sealed his comeback victory in the 2020 Democratic primary, to the first slot.
Two states granted entry into the early window — that is, holding contests before a large number of states vote on “Super Tuesday” — have yet to change the dates of the primaries and have until June to do so. Georgia Democrats have lobbied state officials to change the date of their primary, but there appears little appetite to do so.
Leah Daughtry, a DNC member from New York, dismissed the state law argument in a speech before the vote: “None of that is more important than what the party said it wants in this process.” The state’s new Democratic Party Chair, Rita Hart, said her state “has been put in a position that makes it impossible to comply with both DNC rules and our own state law, which has exactly zero chance of being changed by the Republican legislature.”
