Dear ,

Great news: South Dakota’s top-two primary election measure officially qualified ([link removed]) last week, making it the second state with a nonpartisan primary initiative on the ballot this November. This marks a significant step forward ([link removed]) in the ongoing efforts to abolish party primaries nationwide.
This success in South Dakota is a testament to the hard work and dedication of South Dakota Open Primaries ([link removed]) . We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone involved in making this possible. Unite America ([link removed]) is proud to have supported this initiative to create a more functional and representative democracy.
Seven states ([link removed]) , including Idaho ([link removed]) , Colorado ([link removed]) , and Montana ([link removed]) , are actively pursuing similar primary reforms this year. This growing momentum underscores the nationwide desire to move beyond party primaries and ensure that every voter's voice is heard.
The stakes are high for primary reform in 2024. If successful, these measures will grant millions of voters, particularly independents ([link removed]) , the right to participate in primary elections and help liberate 45 members of Congress from the restrictive bounds of party primaries.
As a philanthropic venture fund, we will continue investing resources in state campaigns and national organizations to foster a more functional and representative government. To further this work, you can contribute to our fund here ([link removed]*16r15n8*_gcl_au*MTIyNzIyNTcuMTY5MzA2Mjg2Nw..&_ga=2.175155042.1549372295.1693683160-543532891.1693062867) — 100% of your contributions will be regranted to the partners in our portfolio ([link removed]) leading these critical initiatives.
We look forward to sharing more victories with you in the future.
