If there's now precedent that you can hold your state's primary whenever you feel like it with no penalty, why wouldn't they do it again?

4. They still were punished in many ways.
Their states were irrelevant and the candidates largely didn't campaign there. If the convention was in question, they wouldn't get full votes.

3. how great is it to see the name Roosevelt again? FDR accepted
his 1936 nom before 100,000 people. :)
