A complete, easy to read calendar here:
Primary Calendar

I never remember dates. Perhaps this calendar will assist you, too.

These NY Times sites have some information including numbers of delegates. Q's link is better for dates, IMO.

Democratic primaries
Republican primaries
Electionprojection.com has a count of delegates won.

Thanks, Jeri, that gives us good coverage.
The count of delegates won is somewhat conjectural for the early states.

Republican Party penalties proposed for 5 states, FL, MI, NH, SC, WY.
The full committee vote not until February.
Iowa not penalized because caucus vote 'non-binding.'
SC will sue if votes denied.
FL expects a 'gentlemanly agreement' to allow votes.

Democratic Party penalties proposed for FL, MI.
It's a long road to the convention, constitutionally it is unlikely that penalties will hold.
