I think it sets an important precedent that the 2 major parties are sanctioning Michigan for moving its primary election up to January. However, next time I would like to see sanctions used more fairly. Michigan was rightfully sanctioned. However, in so doing, New Hampshire and Iowa were given the preferential treatment it has enjoyed for far too long.
Here's what the parties should do. Set a date. All states vote on or after that date. No exceptions. No special treatment. Nobody gets more influence than anybody else. Fair is fair.
