Careful what we wish for!
Everyone should think long about an early large regional primary where candidates will need to have $100 million before a single vote is counted.
Now, most of the ‘southern’ states primaries are held late in the spring.
In my state, the GOP nominee was already determined weeks before the state primary in both 2008 and 2012.
Southern states have been pushing to move their primaries from late spring to early March. The RNC and GOP elites has been fighting this, because it could derail their preference candidate.
Primary dates should be determined by individual states, not a committee of elites in DC.
