In the high stakes game between the DNC and Florida Democrats over the scheduling of the presidential primary, it looks like the Florida Democrats have blinked, agreeing to move the presidential primary from Jan. 29 to Feb. 5. But the Florida Legislature, dominated by Republicans, may not cooperate.
Can Florida Democrats successfully sue to get the primary date changed if the Legislature fails to act? I’d be interested in hearing from others on such a suit. Alternatively, I suppose Florida Democrats could try to change their rules so that any vote on Jan. 29 would be a beauty contest, with some (privately funded) follow up decision later. But that could be a bad political move for Florida Democrats.
