The nation's election administrators are determined to shorten the 2012 presidential contest by pressing for a later start to primary voting.

Meeting in Minneapolis at their annual conference Friday, leading members of the National Association of Secretaries of State said they hoped to persuade Democrats and Republicans to prevent the type of calendar frontloading that triggered such an early start to last year's nominating season.

"I hear from everyone involved in this debate that the early start dates - and the uncertainty of those start dates - were not good for the public, were not good for the candidates, were not good for democracy," said Kentucky's Trey Grayson, a Republican and incoming president of the national Secretaries of State group.

Good idea it could save money. Now I just wonder how they propose to change this.
