Political Calendar for 2024 from the Washington Post (pub 1/2/2024)
May 14: The West Virginia Senate primary between Gov. Jim Justice and Rep. Alex Mooney. The winner is all but certain to win the seat with Sen. Joe Manchin III (D-W.Va.) not running for reelection.
The Maryland Senate primary, where Rep. David Trone and Prince George’s County Executive Angela D. Alsobrooks face off. The winner will probably win the seat to succeed retiring Democratic Sen. Ben Cardin.
May 20: The trial over allegations that Trump mishandled classified documents is set to kick off on this date, although U.S. District Judge Aileen M. Cannon signaled in November that it could be pushed back.
June 4: The Montana Senate primary. Tim Sheehy, the National Republican Senatorial Committee’s preferred candidate, could face a tough fight if Rep. Matthew M. Rosendale decides to run in the key pickup seat against Democratic Sen. Jon Tester.
Voters in New Jersey participate in primary elections where Democrats are vying for the Senate nomination. Gov. Phil Murphy’s wife, Tammy Murphy, is running against Rep. Andy Kim for Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez’s seat after Menendez was indicted in September on corruption charges. (Menendez has pleaded not guilty.)
June 11: The Nevada primary where Republicans will choose their nominee to take on Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen. Washington Republicans are backing Sam Brown, an Army veteran, but he’s facing a competitive primary.
July 15-18: The Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Aug. 5: The potential start date of the Georgia case against Trump and his co-defendants. Fani T. Willis, who is prosecuting Trump and the other defendants over allegedly seeking to undermine Biden’s 2020 victory in the state, asked a judge in November to start the trial on this date — but the timeline could change depending on what happens in this case and the other cases.
