The state of Florida’s special committee has officially voted to hold the state’s presidential primary on January 31, violating the RNC rules mandating that the state hold its contest no earlier than March 6.

The move is sure to trigger retaliations by the official early primary and caucus states of Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina, thus moving the primaries into early January.
