Open Primaries
Jul 21, 2016
On Saturday, we will be at the Democratic National Convention to present our open primaries petition to the DNC Rules Committee and call on the Democratic Party to open up the primaries nationwide. Months of campaigning, organizing, and strategic outreach have led up to this moment -- the culmination of our petition campaign. On behalf of the 26.3 million voters who were disenfranchised this year, the 39,000 voters who signed our petition, and the plurality of Americans who don’t associate with either party, we will send a strong message to the DNC to open the doors of democracy. Everything about this campaign is unprecedented: --Petitioning a rules committee of a party --So many within the party expressing a desire to open up its electoral process --A rule submitted by an insider of that party that would open up the process This is groundbreaking. Historical. And we want you to be a part of it! https://www.facebook.com/events/1281830091835128/ We'll have the signatures printed and bound -- come out and take a photo with us. We'll be taking video testimonials to include in a widely distributed video we're producing about the open primaries fight this year, and we'll be joined by open primaries activists and Convention Delegates to hand-deliver the petitions to the Rules Committee. And if you haven’t already, please share our petition. If every signer can secure just two more signatures we will hit our goal by Saturday. Thanks, Al Benninghoff Legislative Director Open Primaries
