Democratics adopts landmark rule changes
The Democratic Party adopted landmark rule changes after two years of study by a special commission. The key reform limits presidential primary campaigns to 13 weeks between the second Tuesday in March and the second Tuesday in June, with New Hampshire possibly exempted once more. The rules also abolish crossover primaries allowing voters to back candidates from other parties, a change aimed at reducing interparty ballot crossovers ahead of the 1980 nominating process.
