Party spokesmen here in Arizona said that independent voters should not be allowed to vote in party primaries because political parties were like private clubs. I agree that they are like private clubs, but what other private clubs have their elections paid for by public revenues? If we have to pay for these elections, then we should be allowed to vote in them.
Completely agree! Keep in touch!
Robert B. Winn: Check out his very new blog -- and read a very personal fight for the rights of independent voters--
...A party spokesman now on the state committee of his party boasted that the rapid 7% increase in independent voters in the state of Arizona had been stopped by a new voter registration form. People were now registering as Democrats and Republicans, he said.I bring this matter to the attention of black people because they have had more experience in this sort of political party activity than white people like me have had. I know that a large percentage of the people who were registering independent in Arizona before the change in the voter registration form were black people. I would be interested in any suggestions you might have about how to proceed concerning this matter.Arizona is a good place to start for an independent movement. Their election laws are obviously un-Constitutional, and we have caught them red-handed twice taking action to dis-enfranchise independent voters....
