2024 primary and caucus dilemma: Who'll be the first in line?

 
Perhaps Minnesota and Michigan should flip a coin.


Politico, 11/30/2022
Minnesota’s Democratic-Farmer Labor-Party Chair Ken Martin sent a two-page memo to Democratic National Committee members Wednesday evening urging them to not select Michigan as the early primary state from the Midwest in 2024 and beyond. Michigan and Minnesota are seen as the leading contenders to nab the influential perch, after Iowa’s first-in-the-nation status came under harsh scrutiny for its handling of the 2020 caucuses, spurring Democrats to move to change the order of future primaries and elevate a new Midwestern state.

To their credit, both state Democratic party organizations have a diverse staff.  See for yourself:  Michigan, Minnesota.
