Democratic Party discord as a deadline passes in the fight between the DNC and New Hampshire over a new nominating calendar suggested by President Biden
Buckley, a former DNC vice chair, has called the national party's move"mind-boggling" and a"self-inflicted wound" that would hurt the chances of Democratic candidates in 2024 in the key northeastern general election battleground state.
"This committee put together a calendar proposal that reflects our values and will strengthen our party. This calendar does what is long overdue. It expands the number of voices in the early window. And it elevates diverse communities that are at core of the Democratic Party," DNC chair Jaime Harrison said earlier this year.But implementing the calendar has been anything but easy.
The DNC extended an earlier deadline until September 1 for New Hampshire to come into compliance or face getting booted from the early state window for the 2024 cycle. There are plenty of Democrats in Iowa and New Hampshire who see the upending of their lead-off positions as sour grapes from Biden, who finished a disappointing fourth in the 2020 Iowa caucuses and fifth in the New Hampshire primary, before a second place finish in Nevada and a landslide victory in South Carolina propelled him towards the nomination and eventually the White House.
The thought — at this moment — is that the primary may be held on January 23, eight days after Iowa's GOP presidential caucus. "President Biden will not file for election in the New Hampshire primary, which will still go first," Buckley predicted earlier this year."This will set him up, we believe, for an embarrassing situation where the first primary in the country will be won by someone other than the president. This will only fuel chatter of about Democrats divisions."
