2008 Presidential Election
Bill Richardson, governor of New Mexico, is working to establish a Western Primary for 2008, according to the Western Democrat. They're pointing to this article from HispanicBusiness.com.
Western Democrat: "The Nevada legislature, led by the Democratic majority committee, killed "...(t)he dream of an eight-state Western presidential primary that would attract candidates who would talk about issues important to Nevadans and other Westerners" way back before the 2000 election. Seemingly killed because of budget issues, the real reason the primary went down was because Harry Reid didn't want to hand a big primary day to Bill Bradley and because of opposition from the national party."
