In a recent development, the Democratic National Committee met in Texas to discuss the presidential primary calendar for 2028. The committee approved a new lineup, which gives South Carolina the leadoff spot, followed by Nevada. The new calendar is designed to test candidates' support among various communities, including Black and Latino voters and union members.

Other states, such as New Hampshire, New Mexico, Michigan, and Virginia, will also hold early primaries throughout February. Further details about the new primary calendar are available from the Democratic National Committee, which endorsed the plan at its meeting in Texas.
