Should State Adopt an Open Primary? Yes
It would help third parties thrive where they now flunk
By Harry Kresky, General Counsel of
IndependentVoting.Org(IndependentVoice.Org's national affiliate)
Published in The Sacramento Bee
Proposition 14 will give the 3,466,855 independent voters in California who are
not enrolled in a political party the right to participate in the primary elections
that determine who will appear on the general election ballot. If Prop. 14
passes, independents will be on equal footing with other voters.

Harry Kresky, General Counsel of IndependentVoting.Org, on the
court ruling upholding the ballot language for Proposition 14:
“The Court's ruling on the ballot summary for Proposition 14 ensures a fair
and objective statement of what the initiative, if passed, would do. The Court
refused to allow party loyalists to insert language designed to mislead and
frighten voters. Proposition 14, if passed, will place power, where it belongs,
in the hands of the voters. And that includes California’s 3.4 million
independents who presently have no right to participate in primary elections.”
Harry Kresky is general counsel of IndependentVoting.org – a national
association of independents with organization in 40 states. Independent Voice
is the California affiliate of IndependentVoting.Org.
