Florida breaks GOP rule and moves primary date:
The GOP rule that states no state, other than designated four early states, may hold their primaries before March 6th. The Florida legislature says the breaking of this rule, which will move the primary to January 31st from March 6th, will give the state more influence nationally. The state will attract more attention, which it rightfully deserves, they say, because it is the biggest swing state. The four "early" states, Iowa, South Carolina, New Hampshire, and Nevada will in turn move their primaries up which will put pressure on the Republican candidates. I think that this a bold move from Florida, and is really unnecessary. They already attract plenty of attention. The more attention and pressure that's put on them, the more vulnerable they are to screwing up. I think Florida should just abide by the rules, and play well with others.
