Democrats poised to approve 2024 primary calendar, demote Iowa | USA TODAY

Democrats approve the 2024 primary calendar, replacing Iowa with South Carolina as the leadoff state.

Democrats approved a plan to reorder their 2024 presidential primary calendar during a party gathering on Saturday in Pennsylvania.

The national party green-lit a calendar that makes South Carolina the initial contest, elevates Nevada to the second position alongside New Hampshire and welcomes Georgia and Michigan to the early primary window for the first time.

Iowa's caucus, which has traditionally served as the starting-gun for the presidential election, is being displaced. Democrats are seeking to amplify diverse voices earlier in their presidential selection process. The calendar Democrats approved on Saturday will only apply to 2024. They have vowed to revisit it before the 2028 election.

They're changing it because Iowa flipped Red

Do anything to control power as a Party

[MolonLabe]

Hearing the words - Democrats, poised to approve something is like, Jeffery Dahmer telling you he's a good cook.

[KaiserBlade]

He spoke the truth for once yesterday. 'Half the women in my cabinet are women". That's about right. Let's go Brandon.

[janetprice]

Two more states just got added to the Republican side. Lol!

I'm new to trading, how can i get more investment in the market without incurring much losses

[HillaryPrison]

I love it when the lady that called him racist onstage introduces him to people screaming for more years and they all sound like little girls

[fredgonzalez]

What a miserable excuse for a human being. LET'S GO BRANDON!!!

[stevenfanale]

Just leave everything alone!!!! Do not mess with the system because the system will mess with you. South Carolina would not serve as the first in the nation primary because that honor goes to New Hampshire and its rich history behind it. If you think South Carolina represents diversity you are wrong. Just vote that's all.

[debraa.]

I'm with you President Biden...all the way

“I intend to get it done, more done!”
Well, technically anything would be more than nothing. 😐🥴

[morbidlyoppressed]

So Georgia is too wacist for the MLB all-star game, but not too wacist for the democrat convention ???

[doctorstrangelove]

Yes also early voting is on for 2024 and already millions voted for the Dems nominee!

[dlgmdx]

New candidate neither of the current or former put someone else in there

[lechugh]

It is unjust that the people in certain states have more say about who is going to be president than others. But we live in an unjust nation, no it doesn't even occur to these people that it should take place in all states at once.

*How much do extras get paid to act as audience members and chant 4 more years?* 🍿🎟️🤔

[sandramcgill_glorytoGod]

Well I don't think American citizens will be represented much with that change! Pray the Republicans have their pants on!Hats shields and breastplates!! Someone Godly to Head this nation back to victory!

[davidmotyka]

Big deal their policies are degenerate.

[foxxygranpa]

Best chance Democrats have is get someone new to run. Nobody even remotely connected to this failure of an administration has a chance.
