Iowa Republicans have scheduled the party’s presidential nominating caucuses for Jan. 15, 2024, putting the first votes of the next election a little more than six months away.
The Iowa Republican Party’s state central committee voted unanimously Saturday to hold the leadoff contests on the third Monday in January — on the Martin Luther King Jr. Day federal holiday.Though Republican presidential candidates have been campaigning in Iowa since last winter, there has been some uncertainty about when the traditional leadoff contests would be held. That is partly due to the Democratic National Committee’s reshuffling of its calendar and dropping Iowa as its first contest.
Last month, South Carolina Republicans adopted Feb. 24 as the date for the traditional first Southern primary, leaving plenty time for Nevada to schedule its Republican caucuses without crowding New Hampshire. Saturday’s decision could have implications for both parties because Iowa Democrats had been waiting on the state’s Republican Party to set its caucus date as they try to adjust to new DNC rules on the order of the 2024 presidential primary.
