  • CHAPTER 9 SUPER-DUPER TUESDAY There Is a Nomenclature
    CHAPTER 9 SUPER-DUPER TUESDAY There is a nomenclature progression with the first day on which Democratic Party rules permit any state to hold presidential caucuses or a presidential primary. The original name, first used in the 1980s, was Super Tuesday. In 2000, however, when the heavily populated states of New York and California joined the party, the name Titanic Tuesday came into fashion. In 2008, when over 20 states decided to hold presiden- tial caucuses and primaries on that one day, much of the news media began referring to Super-Duper Tuesday. Having a large number of states vote on the same presidential pri- mary election day was the mid-1980s brainchild of the Democratic Leadership Council, a group of moderate southern white Democrats who wanted to see the Democratic Party nominate more southern-oriented and more moderate candidates for president. If a large number of southern states voted on the same day as early in the primary schedule as possible, the logic went, this would give a boost to candidates from southern states. Even if a southerner failed to win in the South on what came to be called Super Tuesday, so many southern states voting on the same day would boost the more moderate Democratic candidates who would be expected to run well in the South. The Democrats found it easy to implement Super Tuesday in the 1980s because most of the state legislatures in the South still had Demo- cratic majorities in both houses. As the Super Tuesday bandwagon started rolling in the mid-1980s, more and more southern state legisla- tures, dominated by the Democratic Party, adopted the second Tuesday in March as their primary day.
