One of the biggest criticisms surrounding the primaries is the attention given to the Iowa caucus and the New Hampshire Primary. These two events are held well before the rest of the NationÃ?s, and are given the most attention. However, the population of these states is not representative of the US majority, and the states that actually hold a population majority often end up holding primary elections after all opposing candidates drop out of the race.
