Is this calendar change following through? Will Iowa finally be brought down a peg after choosing the wrong winner by a wide berth in 2016 and 2020?

It's chosen everyone except Biden and Bill in the past 30. Obama got put on the map because of the state and went on to win the largest victory this century.

Iowa missed Bernie in 2016 too, since Hillary didn't "win" in the end. Not even mentioning Trump.
Plus they are virtually useless to Dem congressional majorities at this point.

Cutting Iowa loose to prop up South Carolina Dems which actually hold some promise is a good idea.
