Not meaningless, but not more meaningful than other states just for being first.

To use the other crazy argument, that the Southern primaries do not matter because we don't get their electoral votes: Iowa went to the Orange Menace, so why should we care when we didn't get their electoral votes?

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
