Explain to me again why the GOP allows Democrat states like Iowa and New Hampshire to be the first to select their Presidential nominee? The first GOP primary should be held in Oklahoma.

None other than Reince Priebus, within the last few days, has floated the proposal for rotating the early contests among several states.

The only reason for the current order is a Mexican standoff about what should replace it.

I’m not sure how Iowa rates as a “Democrat state.”

The state has two Republican US Senators, 3 out of 4 Congressmen are Republicans. The Governor is Republican (at least allegedly.) The state house is Republican.
