PPP: Hillary Won the SC Dem Candidate Forum

[JDPriestly]

95. I'm from California. In recent elections, we have been a very blue state.

Our large immigrant population and urban centers mean we are liberal.

But we don't vote in the primary until June.

People from red and purple states vote and decide what candidates are still running when we finally get a chance to have a voice.

The order of the primaries should be changed.

Democrats should allow heavily Democratic states to vote first.

As it is now, Iowa is fairly conservative, New Hampshire moderate and South Carolina very conservative. None of the really, really liberal states like California, Oregon, New York, Massachusetts, etc. get a word in until the conservatives have picked the candidate.

That is wrong. It pushes the nation rightward, ever rightward. We see the results in the chaotic, anti-government bunch leading Congress right now.
