一 | CONCORD, N.H. -- The New Hampshire presidential primary filing period starts Wednesday, a ritual unruffled by either a changing of the guard or changes to the nominating calendar elsewhere.For the first time in more than four decades, candidates will file paperwork with a new secretary of state thanks to the retirement last year of longtime elections chief Bill Gardner. But his successor, David Scanlan, is carrying on the tradition of ensuring New Hampshire remains first, waiting for the dust to settle in other states before scheduling the 2024 contest.“I’m really in no hurry,” he said in an interview Tuesday.In contrast, the candidates themselves — particularly the longshots — often are in a race to sign up first in hopes that a bit of media attention will boost their campaigns. In 1991, a writer from New York drove 11 hours in a snowstorm only to find another perennial candidate waiting at the door. In 2007, a Minnesota fugitive living in Italy sent a package by courier that arrived just before an ex-convict embarked on a 90-minute rant that included five costume changes.Current candidates have until Oct. 27 to sign up, and dozens are expected to do in part because it’s relatively cheap and easy. They need only meet the basic requirements to be president, fill out a one-page form and pay a $1,000 filing fee.In 2020, 33 Democrats and 17 Republicans signed up. The all-time high was 1992, when 61 people got on the ballot. But this cycle could be notable instead for whose name isn’t on the ballot.New Hampshire, with its state law requiring its primaries to be held first, is defying the Democratic National Committee’s new primary calendar which calls for South Carolina to kick off voting on Feb. 3, followed by New Hampshire and Nevada. The shakeup came at the request of President Joe Biden in a bid to empower Black and other minority voters crucial to the party’s base.Biden’s campaign won’t comment on whether he will be on the ballot in New Hampshire. But he wouldn’t be the first reelection-seeking incumbent missing from the primary ballot: President Lyndon Johnson won the 1968 Democratic primary as a write-in, though a shockingly strong-second place showing by Sen. Eugene McCarthy helped push him out of the race.Scanlan, who served as deputy secretary of state for 20 years, said he was excited to welcome candidates starting Wednesday. Like his predecessor, he plans to greet them with a few encouraging words, but don’t expect the obscure trivia Gardner often added.“I don’t have any history lessons planned,” Scanlan said. “That was Bill’s style, and he was really, really good at it.”。 来源：【人民体育】1月12日，2024 “冠军之夜” 体育盛典在北京盛大启幕，吸引了历届奥运冠军、体育明星、合作伙伴及各大网络媒体纷至沓来，共同见证这一体育界的年度盛事。智慧休闲氛围轻松，红毯首秀华彩登场活动伊始，签到区热闹非凡。嘉宾们满怀热忱地签到入场，欢声笑语不断，整个活动现场充满了轻松愉悦的氛围，有趣的休闲活动也为来宾们搭建起了多元交流的互动桥梁。接下来的红毯环节更是令人眼前一亮，奥运健儿、嘉宾踏上红毯，走出迷人风采。领略“首金”风采，论道体坛未来嘉宾们红毯亮相后，许海峰论坛率先开启。许海峰，这位中国奥运里程碑式的人物，令在场观众不由深情回顾奥运夺冠四十载的风雨兼程与双奥之城的体育传奇，沉浸于中国体育波澜壮阔的发展历程之中。本次盛典的高光时刻同样备受瞩目，后辈送来温情祝福，竞走奥运冠军王丽萍真情献花，第十一届全国政协教科文卫体委员会副主任，北京2008年奥运会组委会执行副主席蒋效愚为许海峰颁发奖杯，都承载着对其体育生涯的至高敬意与无上赞誉。紧接其后的圆桌论坛，6位各行业精英围坐论道，以 “冠军价值的深度挖掘与传承” 为核心议题，各抒己见、思维碰撞，为体育事业发展的未来之路点亮明灯、提供宝贵智识。历届奥运冠军的“传奇永驻勋章”授予仪式，更是将现场气氛推向沸点，当他们佩戴勋章，往昔赛场上的拼搏与荣耀瞬间重燃，体育精神的光辉在此刻永恒定格。节目精彩纷呈，抽奖惊喜不断艺术的华彩篇章在节目表演中徐徐展开。沙画表演《我们的奥林匹克梦》，艺术家妙手丹青，以沙为墨绘就体育宏图，如梦似幻；街舞表演活力四溢，舞者们灵动身姿与动感节奏完美契合，诠释青春热血；歌唱家引吭高歌，《在希望的田野上》《一杯美酒》等经典旋律余音绕梁；相声表演诙谐幽默，逗趣包袱引发阵阵欢笑；唢呐演奏高亢激昂，《打虎山上》的旋律尽显豪迈。多样艺术形式与体育主题交相辉映，为现场观众呈上一场美轮美奂的视听盛宴。
