Let Your Voice Be Heard: Sign Our Petition

Stay up to date with the latest developments and volunteer opportunities.

Every spring, Pennsylvania's voters head to the polls for the Commonwealth's primary elections.

But not everyone is included in this process. That’s because primaries are closed in Pennsylvania.  More than 1.4 million taxpaying independent voters are denied their right to vote in these elections, despite paying their share of $75 million a year to fund them.

It’s time to #RepealClosedPrimaries and allow every legally registered voter to cast a ballot in PA’s primary.

77% of Pennsylvanians support repealing closed primaries - including strong majorities of independents, Democrats, and Republicans.

Repealing closed primaries would guarantee a more fair process, increase the competitiveness of races, and help limit the amount of extremism and gridlock on both sides.

Join the overwhelming majority of PA voters who favor repealing closed primaries.

    Everyone should have a say in who gets to run in general elections. This includes independents, who tend to believe they are free-thinkers, unaligned with a specific party.

    We are Americans, not Republicans or Democrats. Closed primaries only further political parties. I’m a Demopublican with Independent tendacies.
