Will changes in the US Democratic primary calendar better reflect | Inside Story

The Democratic National Committee in the US has approved Joe Biden's push to give Black and other minority voters more sway in the presidential nomination process.
Voters in all 50 states get to choose between various contenders in the party primaries, a process that takes months.
Those who start the race on a winning note tend to gain momentum for their candidacy.
For decades, Iowa has been first on the primary calendar, followed by New Hampshire - two of the least diverse states in the nation.
Now the first Democratic primary will be in South Carolina, where Black voters play a significant role.
