As the presidential nomination process has become more front-loaded and the New Hampshire primary has been scheduled earlier in the calendar year, a new period in presidential campaign politics has emerged, running from about mid-March until late July, in which both parties' nomination races have been effectively settled, even though neither national convention has yet taken place.
