This move is seen by some as an attempt by the party establishment to hinder the chances of progressive candidates, despite evidence suggesting a leftward shift in public opinion. While some party members believe South Carolina's early placement could disadvantage a progressive nominee, others, including the state's Democratic Party chair, argue that a progressive candidate could indeed win there with sufficient grassroots effort.
