WHOSE IDEA IS THIS?

Nevada Caucus
Election Reform, Presidential Politics, Regionalism

There is a move to make Nevada or possibly Colorado an early caucus state.

This could give a greater voice to several underrepresented and important groups in the early selection process: residents of urban areas, Hispanics, and Westerners. As a bonus to office seekers and the press alike, January in Nevada is likely to be a lot more pleasant than January in New Hampshire or Iowa.

An early Western caucus is a great complement to a Western primary.
