Why on earth would you ask people from South Carolina. The Carolinas exist in a cursed rural Grand Theft Auto pocket dimension, they're what people think Florida is like. South Carolina politics infamously doesn't map to the rest of the country at all and the Democrats there are basically just the James Clyburn Party.
It's a state that's only ever used to manufacture consent for centrist Dems because it has an early primary and some of the most right wing voters in the country.
Every state should race to make its primaries the earliest for both simple self interest and to end this electoral bullshit.
For anyone who is all hopped up electoral reform, add this to your list.
Liberal Trotsky about to unleash permanent elections on the first world.
I've actually been thinking about doing this for NY
I've been getting real pissed at all those establishment ghouls saying shit like "well that worked in NY but that's too radical for the rest ofnthe country" and I wanna make them choke on those words
