I'd care if NH was being pushed super far down the list but under the DNC/Biden plan we'd only be second by three days and b/c of the history and midnight voting we'd still get a lot of attention.
Iowa always went before us anyway and nobody cared because of the superficial caucus vs. primary difference. This really doesn't change much.
I just hope our elected officials don't waste their time fighting this when there's real work to be done. It's a good deal, change the law if you have to, but don't spend the next 15 months making things harder on the rest of the country just because the Iowa caucus got swapped for the SC primary.
