John,

It used to be a trickle. Now it's a flood. Gallup indicates that 47% of Americans now identify as independents.

In some states, more people are registered to vote as independents than Democrats and Republicans...COMBINED!

Independents have the numbers.  And independents want change. But we don’t - yet - have the narrative.  By fighting to repeal closed primaries and let all voters vote, we are changing that.  

Major change doesn’t happen in a straight line — and it doesn’t happen without a strong, steady base of supporters who fuel the work month after month.

That’s why today I’m asking you to become a Monthly Supporter of Open Primaries.

When you give monthly — whether it’s $15, $35, $50, $85, $250, or more — you give us the ability to respond quickly when a legislature suddenly moves (like in Nevada <[link removed]> earlier this year), when a lawsuit needs to be filed, when a ballot measure emerges, or when an opportunity appears seemingly overnight.

This year alone:

- Legislators in New Mexico expanded primary voting rights for independents.
- The NYC Charter Revision Commission considered a major open primaries ballot measure in response to  200 independent voters stating simply “I can’t vote in NYC elections!”  
- We filed a historic lawsuit in Maryland on behalf of 900,000 disenfranchised independents.
- And national figures — from Bill Clinton to Joe Manchin to Elon Musk — are amplifying the need for political structures that include all voters.

Momentum is real. But sustaining it requires consistent, reliable support.

Your monthly gift ensures we can:

- Mobilize local coalitions.  
- Amplify independent voters’ stories nationwide.
- Produce the videos, trainings, and educational tools that develop spokespeople and move public opinion.
- Keep up legal and legislative pressure where it matters most.
- Build a movement strong enough to really win - and by win we mean changing the game in a meaningful, longterm fashion. We don’t simply work to pass open primaries; we work to create new coalitions that can take advantage of open primaries!

The parties have lobbyists, insiders, endless money and institutional validation. We have people like you who believe that the solution to endless partisan division and negativity is to let the people in.    

Become a Monthly Supporter of Open Primaries today — and help us build a political system where All Voters Vote and the people are in charge.
