The 2024 presidential nominating contests will begin with voting in Iowa on Jan. 15, followed by New Hampshire on Jan. 23. Super Tuesday on March 5 will see 16 states or territories voting, and by the end of March, two-thirds of states and territories will have voted for their preferred party nominees. Since 1976, winning both Iowa and New Hampshire has been significant for Republican nominees.
The Nevada GOP plans to hold its own caucus despite a new state law calling for a primary election, leading to concerns about voter confusion and extra costs for GOP campaigns. The party-run caucus will determine which candidate receives the state's delegates to the Republican National Convention, rendering the primary results irrelevant. Critics argue that the move benefits former President Donald Trump. Caucuses have been criticized for making it harder for people to vote, while primaries allow for early voting and mail voting. The Nevada GOP is considering other options to eliminate the primary, including appealing the case to the Nevada Supreme Court.
