The Republican National Committee has announced it wants to hold its 2016 national convention as early as June. As Political Science Professor Thomas Schaller writes in an op-ed published January 28 in The Baltimore Sun, the decision to do so centers around finances.

“It’s a wise but also very sad decision because it confirms what most Americans already know applies to both parties: Money matters most,” Schaller writes.

In his column titled “In presidential primary schedule, money talks,” Schaller notes condensing the primary schedule and moving the convention earlier has two potential benefits: time and money. He writes moving the convention earlier gives parties more time to devote to the general election and also has campaign finance benefits.

“So at least in theory, a condensed primary calendar and earlier convention may prevent Republicans from wasting time and money on an end-of-summer convention that arrives too late to matter,” Schaller writes. “Once matching funds are no longer part of the equation, the financial penalty of an early convention disappears,” he adds.
