The 2024 Republican National Convention will be held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin which was also the site of the 2000 Democratic National Convention.
The site of the 2024 Democratic National Convention has not been selected. Atlanta, Chicago, Houston, and New York City have submitted bids.
President Biden has proposed a reordering of the primary calendar for 2024 which has been accepted by the DNC’s Rules and Bylaws Committee. To move forward, the recommendation must be approved by the full DNC which will hold a meeting in early February 2023. The proposed order of primaries is February 3rd, South Carolina; February 6th, New Hampshire, and Nevada; February 13th, Georgia, and then Michigan on February 27th. (It is hard not to assume that this order has something to do with the role South Carolina played in his race in 2020.) Biden has proposed that the DNC review the primary calendar every four years.
