“South Carolina GOP sets Feb. 24 date for first-in-the-South presidential primary”

AP in The Hill. “By setting South Carolina’s vote on Feb. 24, … candidates would have more time after Nevada votes on Feb. 6 to focus their attention on the state.” Meanwhile, “Biden’s plan [is] to strip Iowa’s caucus of its traditional post leading off primary voting and replace it with South Carolina, which would vote on Feb. 3, 2024. New Hampshire has long held the nation’s first primary after Iowa’s caucus. But under the new calendar, it would vote next, together with Nevada, on Feb. 6 — a change New Hampshire officials have decried.”
