一 | CONCORD, N.H. -- The New Hampshire presidential primary filing period starts Wednesday, a ritual unruffled by either a changing of the guard or changes to the nominating calendar elsewhere.For the first time in more than four decades, candidates will file paperwork with a new secretary of state thanks to the retirement last year of longtime elections chief Bill Gardner. But his successor, David Scanlan, is carrying on the tradition of ensuring New Hampshire remains first, waiting for the dust to settle in other states before scheduling the 2024 contest.“I’m really in no hurry,” he said in an interview Tuesday.In contrast, the candidates themselves — particularly the longshots — often are in a race to sign up first in hopes that a bit of media attention will boost their campaigns. In 1991, a writer from New York drove 11 hours in a snowstorm only to find another perennial candidate waiting at the door. In 2007, a Minnesota fugitive living in Italy sent a package by courier that arrived just before an ex-convict embarked on a 90-minute rant that included five costume changes.Current candidates have until Oct. 27 to sign up, and dozens are expected to do in part because it’s relatively cheap and easy. They need only meet the basic requirements to be president, fill out a one-page form and pay a $1,000 filing fee.In 2020, 33 Democrats and 17 Republicans signed up. The all-time high was 1992, when 61 people got on the ballot. But this cycle could be notable instead for whose name isn’t on the ballot.New Hampshire, with its state law requiring its primaries to be held first, is defying the Democratic National Committee’s new primary calendar which calls for South Carolina to kick off voting on Feb. 3, followed by New Hampshire and Nevada. The shakeup came at the request of President Joe Biden in a bid to empower Black and other minority voters crucial to the party’s base.Biden’s campaign won’t comment on whether he will be on the ballot in New Hampshire. But he wouldn’t be the first reelection-seeking incumbent missing from the primary ballot: President Lyndon Johnson won the 1968 Democratic primary as a write-in, though a shockingly strong-second place showing by Sen. Eugene McCarthy helped push him out of the race.Scanlan, who served as deputy secretary of state for 20 years, said he was excited to welcome candidates starting Wednesday. Like his predecessor, he plans to greet them with a few encouraging words, but don’t expect the obscure trivia Gardner often added.“I don’t have any history lessons planned,” Scanlan said. “That was Bill’s style, and he was really, really good at it.”。 출연: 박지훈 변호사, 오윤혜 방송인, 하어영 한겨레 정치팀 기자,오혁진 일요시사 기자. 진행: 고현준. 이재명·김민석 지도부 만찬…‘당정청 원팀’ 재강조/이 대통령 ‘최저 지지율’ 38.9%...당·청 돌파구 고심/김민석, 당내 입단속 메시지 “개별 발언 자제”/대통합추진단 첫 회의…조국혁신당은 선 긋기?/조국 “이언주, 강득구 지역구에 후보 낼 것”/이준석 대표직 사퇴...왜 하필 지금?/장동혁 취임 1주년 “당원주권”·“싸울 인재” 강조/민주당, ‘이진숙 제명 촉구 결의안’ 오늘 본회의 상정/박근혜 이어 이명박 만나는 정점식, 속내는?/김건희 매관매직 항소심 시작…1심 징역 7년/‘계엄 정당화 메시지’ 김태효 첫 재판서 혐의 부인/종합특검 180일 수사 마무리...총평은?/‘노상원 수첩’·‘양평 고속도로’ 등 핵심 의혹 미제로.../특검, 홍장원 전 국정원 1차장· 조성현 대령 기소/오혁진 취재...국정원 ‘반국가 세력 블랙리스트’ 재조사. 오늘 (8월 26일) 뉴스 다이브 많은 시청바랍니다.。
