I'm going to say that at this point, New Hampshire should move up to first (since it's rather clear that stripping of them of their delegates won't deter them, and candidates of both parties will campaign there anyways).

So, my ideal order for the early states would be:

1.New Hampshire

2. South Carolina

3. Michigan

4. Arizona

That infamous law that mandates New Hampshire be the first primary in the nation, is it constitutional?
Because I read that Michigan will challenge it in court if NH refuses to accede to DNC's calendar.

It almost certainly isn't.

However, I imagine the Supreme Court, assuming the case got there, likely wouldn't rule on this anyways, viewing it as a political question that they have no jurisdiction over.

Then prepare to have no Congressional Representation as long Democrats control either house of Congress (which is what Democrats should do if they have the spine to stand up to New Hampshire).
