Five States have applied to kick off the 2028 Democratic Primary. Let's take a look at their electoral profiles and find out which state the Election Community chose.
Solid demographic breakdown here. The North Carolina case is particulalry compelling because it balances minority representation without over-indexing on any single group like SC does with Black voters. What often gets missed in these primary convos is how the first state shapes media narratives for months. I remember working on campaigns where an Iowa win created unstopabble momentum even when the candidate underperformed elsewhere.
That’s a great point! The Iowa Caucus had a powerful impact in the past, like propelling Buttigieg into the conversation for the nomination. But 2020 also showed us that you need to build a diverse coalition early on if you want to clinch the Democratic nomination.
