The Democratic National Committee has approved a plan to shake up the 2024 presidential primary calendar, demoting longtime early voting states Iowa and New Hampshire in favor of South Carolina, Nevada, Georgia and Michigan. President Joe Biden has argued that the changes will ensure that all voices are heard in the nomination process, but the plan has been met with opposition from some impacted states. The DNC will continue to work with state leaders to ensure that the new calendar is implemented in a fair and equitable way.
