Pennsylvania lawmakers plan to begin voting on legislation to hold the state’s 2024 presidential primary a few weeks earlier.
The Senate bill’s sponsor has long pushed to hold Pennsylvania's primary earlier, before presidential candidates have all but locked down the delegates they need to win the nomination.
By March 19, a candidate could lock up the delegates necessary to win the nomination, or at least put the contest out of reach. Many state lawmakers oppose moving Pennsylvania's primary date to March 19, because that would force them and other candidates to start gathering signatures on their re-election petitions the week before Christmas, Argall said.
