2028 Battle of the Primaries: State with 1970s demographics wants to be first

 

Demographics:  U.S. Census Bureau Quick Facts

Headline:  Des Moines Register, 8/21/2025

Brianne Pfannenstiel reports:

In a new survey set released to Iowa Democrats Thursday, Aug. 21, Iowa Democratic Party Chair Rita Hart writes that although the party’s focus is on winning elections in 2026, “discussions about the 2028 nominating process have begun.” 

“Without an incumbent president on the ballot, we are likely to have one of the deepest and longest nominating campaigns in history,” she wrote in the survey introduction. “Unlike 2024, the outcome of the presidential nominating process will be in doubt. As Iowa Democrats, we have choices to make about how to proceed.”
