Rules for the Democratic presidential nominating calendar

Friday, April 14, 2006 | 8:22 a.m.

A look at how the 2008 Democratic presidential nominating calendar will work:

-Iowa will hold the first caucus on a Tuesday, probably in January, as usual.

-One or two states will hold caucuses on the Saturday after the Iowa caucus.

-New Hampshire will hold its primary, the nation's first, on the Tuesday after Iowa's caucuses.

-One or two states will hold primaries soon afterward.

-The national window for all other caucuses and primaries would then open.
