from the 19 April 2022 Boston Herald:
begin quote:
DNC leadership voted last week to change the rules and make states apply for an early spot in the lineup, rather than use the traditional order of Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina.
A roster of powerful Democrats in other states argue that both Iowa, which holds a caucus, and New Hampshire, the first primary, are not inclusive enough to earn such a powerful voice in the presidential process.
“This is a powerful resolution of a thoughtful process that is going to be inclusive of all Democrats,” said Massachusetts’ Jim Roosevelt Jr., who co-chairs the Rules and Bylaws Committee. “Why should two disparate small states that don’t reflect the diversity of this country be the ones that presidential candidates go into their homes?” asked U.S. Rep. Debbie Dingell of Michigan.
According to the resolution, the demographic diversity of the state and the state’s competitiveness in the general election will now play major roles in how states are awarded early lineup spots.

aside from the obvious comments on the DNC, I have to wonder why the first primary is thought to be so important...

...mostly because it's first and lots of people are still stupid enough to think the dems would let an unapproved candidate on the ballot.
That's they got the senile imposter and kamelhair.

the clown didn't do well in the first few primaries... yet still ended up being the DNC choice in the general
so, winning one of the first primaries is important?

By default. Bernie Sanders started winning, and therefore, had to be eliminated.

We would have been better off with Bernie in there than the clown we have now. :o ::)
