Iowa Democrats have proposed a plan to cast aside the state’s historic tradition of voting for their preferred presidential nominee via caucus only in favor of a hybrid model that also includes mail-in voting.

The plan would also involve delaying the election’s results until Super Tuesday, giving up the state’s coveted status as the nation’s first presidential nomination contest.
