The current state-staggered Presidential Primaries place unfair emphasis on early voting states. A fraction of Americans determine the agenda for the entire campaign season often eliminating favored contenders before the rest of the country even gets a chance to vote. In this tradition saturated system, all votes are not created equal. It is time to remedy that with a National Primary Day!
Each party should pick nominees for president the way they nominate everyone else: with a final binding nomination contest held on the same day. State-by-state contests could remain in some form, but only to determine which candidates (who earn a certain percentage of delegates) advance to the national primary. This would ensure each voter, regardless of state of residence, is heard equally.
