MSNBC: Democrats Approve New 2024 Primary Calendar, South Carolina Will Host First Democratic Primary
RUSH EXCERPT:
PARRA: “Well, it is official. This was expected to happen, they officially passed this, which means that South Carolina will hold the first primary. Now as I we have mentioned, this is something that there was active dissent from when it comes to dnc members, from the states of Iowa and New Hampshire. That is because, as we have also mentioned, it has been tradition for 50 years there’s been the Iowa caucus followed by roughly 100 years of tradition of the New Hampshire primary, which was the first in the country. And so there is a state law in New Hampshire that requires New Hampshire to be the first state to hold their primary, and now that New Hampshire’s Republican controlled in every way, we’re talking about governor, house, state, in every way, this means that state law is not looking like it’s going to change anytime soon.”
