Democrats Move to Cut Iowa’s First-in-the-Nation Election Status, State Simply Not Diverse Enough

By Jack Davis, The Western Journal
March 13, 2022

On the grounds that Iowa has too few non-white residents, the Democratic Party took steps Friday that could lead it to push Iowa aside as it sets the rules for the 2024 presidential nominating cycle.

Although no final decision was taken on Friday by the Democratic National Committee’s Rules and Bylaws Committee, the tide appeared to be running against Iowa continuing its role as the first state to hold a contest in the presidential nominating process, according to The Washington Post.
 
“Now is not a time for us as a party to stand on tradition,” said Mo Elleithee, a member of the committee. “Now is not a time for us as a party to stand on status quo.”

A draft of the resolution being considered sets criteria for states that want to apply to hold contests before the first Tuesday in March, according to the Des Moines Register.

That's exactly right.  Besides sitting on their thumbs what are the Republicans doing?  Most are sitting back thinking that they have the mid term elections in their pockets.  They couldn't be more wrong!

No, this is a GREAT idea for the Rats. They should start their primaries in a State like NY, IL, or CA. IOW, the more radical left the candidate the better., maybe then the suburban women and other "moderates" will wake up and join the conservatives.

I couldn't agree more!

The Pubs have been losing the redistricting battles and in Mo. the Pubs are going along with ranked choice voting where the winner on the first ballot may not be the final winner.
