Are Super Tuesday states the same every election cycle?

For primaries, final dates are determined by state legislatures, including Super Tuesday. Each state will submit scheduling proposals to the Democratic and Republican parties, who will approve the dates. If states are dissatisfied with the dates specified by political parties, they can hold primaries on the dates of their choice, but there is a risk of sanctions from the political parties. State legislatures have no role in these conventions, as caucuses are organized by state political parties.

Super Tuesday is a day that began in 1988 when Southern states offered more moderate candidates, said Barbara Nolander, professor emeritus at the University of Arizona’s School of Government and Public Policy and author of the 1994 book “Super Tuesday.” The idea began when they wanted to work together to nominate someone.

Other states have since joined in on the Super Tuesday craze. By moving up their primaries to take part in Super Tuesday, states can have more influence in the presidential election.
