The article discusses the diminishing influence of early primary states, such as Iowa and New Hampshire, in the presidential nomination process. The traditional system of candidates campaigning in these states and gaining momentum from their victories is changing due to changes in the primary schedule and the presence of well-known front-runners like President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump. The article also mentions the impact of fundraising and the nationalization of presidential campaigns in reducing the significance of early states. Despite these changes, supporters of Iowa and New Hampshire argue that these states still play a critical role in the selection of a president. [Extracted from the article]
