DNC moves 2024 presidential primary calendar

February 4, 2023

Delegates of the Democratic National Committee overwhelmingly approved the party’s presidential nominating calendar, reordering what states will vote first in the 2024 primaries. This has upended a century of political tradition. President Joe Biden and his advisers elevated South Carolina to the first-place position in the primary calendar.

The new calendar approved by the majority of DNC members is as follows:

  • February 2, 2024 – South Carolina
  • February 6, 2024 – New Hampshire and Nevada
  • February 13, 2024 – Georgia
  • February 27, 2024 – Michigan
  • Much of the rest of the nation set to vote on Super Tuesday in early March

Even though the DNC delegates approved the new calendar, there’s no guarantee it will hold in 2024. New Hampshire and Georgia haven’t moved their primary dates yet. Earlier this month, the Rules and Bylaws Committee granted the pair extensions to June 3, which has also pushed any discussion of sanctions against those states that don’t comply to summer 2023.

Democrats will revisit the early nominating calendar ahead of 2028, reopening the application process to states to be a part of the early window.
