Iowa Republican Caucus to be Held on Jan. 3 
--------------------------------------------



On Monday, the Iowa Republican Party announced its first-in-the-nation
caucus will be held on Jan. 3, 2012. Politico reports the decision could
upend the primary calendar by pushing New Hampshire’s primary date
into December. Iowa is usually the first vote of the season, followed by
New Hampshire, but now New Hampshire may go first.
