C'mon man. Vote for, you know, the thing!

[ericw]

Make it a rotating schedule and be done with the drama...

[reneekad]

Disappointment at how much time and energy was wasted.

[bryantsherman]

Well you know, or can just imagine what the DNC did for Clyburn's support for Biden in the last election. Now, SC is elevated to exalted status.

[TyroneNorwood]

What do you mean "we know and love" if it was so loved, it wouldn't have been changed..

[reneekad]

I’m curious if the people who act like it’s me against democracy know what my life was like outside of propaganda? Apparently not.

[davidschaufus]

dosent matter what the dnc says it is in NH law that we are first so we will have ours scheduled for before south carolinas

[XLR]

Democrats are saying the quiet part out loud now.

[Patriot]

Here in s.c. we dispise dangerous Democrats.

[onomatopoeia]

Just like the SCOTUS said over and over again... either "party" can do what they want on things like this.. I heard.

[morbidlyoppressed]

After 92% of Georgians polled said it was “very easy” to vote in 2022
Their whole argument of voter suppression fell apart

[pauloaka]

So if that's lawful. What stops other states from putting into legislation that their state is first?

[Smartskull]

Stop having kids folks! Spare them all the pain & suffering in this cruel world we live in

[elizabethschell]

RIP that chapter in the history books 🤣

[agentofashcroft]

why? they aren't going to win the state anyways

[highlymedicated]

New Hampshire is Republican controlled?

[MrsMcIlrath]

Y does it matter? Buttigeg won the nh primary in 2020 did he not?

[MainlyMaine]

DNC could care less about tradition and doing what is right and legal. Why is this story a surprise?!?

[Les_Grossman_Ego]

Who will be the dem candidate, Kamala or Big Mike Obama 🤔

[rigobertogiusti]

States that should of actually been first to vote in the democratic primary is California, New York, Connecticut, Vermont, Mass, Washington, Oregon, Illinois, Colorado and Minnesota. Those states are the most democratic states in the country and they should go first in deciding the democratic nominee. Almost all of these states have diverse populations that represent the party. The next round should be on Super Tuesday with the swings states Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Arizona, Maine, New Hampshire Virginia, Nevada, New Mexico and Nevada. Next round two heavy hitters but Republican states Fl and Texas. Then the rest you can just split them up between two days and call it a day(South Carolina included in this). *I don’t get this new schedule it makes absolutely no sense.
