South Carolina lands first 2028 Democratic primary slot after DNC vote
TL;DR Summary
South Carolina won a bid to host the first Democratic presidential primary in 2028 after the DNC Rules & Bylaws panel narrowly favored it over Nevada, a decision framed by debates over race, representation, and Voting Rights Act implications. The plan would sequence contests as South Carolina, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Michigan and Virginia, pending full DNC ratification, with NH and possibly Iowa poised to challenge the order.
