House Minority Leader Chimes In On Presidential Primaries

(UNDATED) - With the first official presidential primary scheduled to take place in New Hampshire tomorrow, do Hoosiers really care?

Some do and some don't, but those who do aren't so concerned with Iowa and New Hampshire as they are some of the bigger states in the union. And there are those who think Indiana should consider an earlier primary and have a larger voice in deciding the party candidates.

House Minority Leader Brian Bosma says he pays attention to the bigger primaries rather than the early small states, but would be open to the idea of an earlier primary in the Hoosier state.

Bosma says the main concern would be the cost and the possibility of Indiana having a special date for the presidential primary while keeping the 1st Tuesday in May for state and location primary elections.

Bosma says if her were "king-for-a-day," he would move Indiana's presidential primary to the Super Tuesday primary in February.
