I think Iowa law requires them to go first and New Hampshire will always follow a few days later. However, I agree that the best thing would be for southern and traditionally conservative states to hold primaries the Tuesday after New Hampshire.

Thanks for the response. Didn’t realize Iowa law “requires” them to go first. Who cares what Iowa says (sorry to those here)?

Maybe Georgia or Oklahoma can make their law require them to go first...? I’d prefer that.

I’m not up on the business of primaries (obviously), but someone who can get the ball rolling to change the dates of these primaries needs to start now!

Who can start the push for change? FReepers? Haley? Rush? Jindal?
