The early primary elections, which rank multiple candidates in the same party, tend to 'weed out' those with no chance of winning a presidential election, and allowing the probable peospects to the top of the list. Since New Hampshire has the first primary (Iowa has caucuses - a little different) election leading to a presidential election, it is only the second public measurement of each candidate's presidential potential.
