The state of New Hampshire is at the center of attention as the nation eagerly awaits the Democratic primary on January 23rd. However, voters may be surprised to find that former Vice President Joe Biden's name will not appear on the ballot. The absence of his name has led some New Hampshire Democrats to take matters into their own hands in an effort to support Biden's candidacy.
New Hampshire, known for being the first primary state for over a century, had its status modified last February by the Democratic National Committee (DNC). At Biden's request, the DNC designated South Carolina as the first in the nation primary. However, New Hampshire state law still mandates that it retains its position as the first primary state, leading to a conflict between the state and the DNC.
