Horrible practice. My personal preference is an IRV national primary, but I understand that logistically that'd be a nightmare. More realistically, I hope for a rotating calendar which is more compact. Ofc, I don't actually expect anything to change.
It kind of annoys me how these two states (for no good reason) get so much attention from the candidates and media whilst all of the others are relatively unimportant, by far. Same thing goes with OH, VA, FL, etc. during the GE.
Does anyone have a defense of these two states' privileges?
They are important in the GE for a reason though. Not necessarily a good reason, but a reason.
