LINCOLN - The Nebraska Democratic Party is bidding to be among the first presidential primaries in 2024.

The party announced that its executive committee has submitted a letter of intent to the Democratic National Committee to make Nebraska one of the early states conducting its primaries prior to Super Tuesday in early March 2024.

The Democratic National Committee recently decided to open up bidding for the earliest primaries, asking states to explain why they should be included among a batch of five states to hold the first primaries.
