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.

    Every vote should count not just the ones you think matter more. Everyone should have the right to vote regardless of whether they have a particular party they agree with or not. This is America where we are told everyday our vote matters except when you don’t choose 1 of the 2 parties that you think should win. Let the people decide like OUR constitution dictates. Nowhere in the federal constitution does it declare a two party system. It actually clearly states that too much power in any section of the government is bad.

    As one of the 1.2 million PA residents who are Independent in the political spectrum, my voice is just as important in voting as any Republican or Democratic. Please help those bills that will make our voices heard in the polls.
