Recently, news outlets and pundits have commented on Nevada’s push to challenge New Hampshire’s First in the Nation status by introducing a new bill changing their presidential nomination process from a caucus to a primary and then modifying the date of that new primary.
While the proposed legislation might portend future attempts by Nevada to supplant New Hampshire’s status, the actual legislation in its current form does not.
The Nevada legislation, if passed, would put the date of Nevada’s primary on the second to last Tuesday in January, with early voting beginning ten days before the primary. Nevada could also move its Presidential Primary date to as early as January 2 if any other state in the western United States decides to put its presidential primary date before Nevada.
