Conversations on Primaries and Caucuses and Independents

Just under the 2-party-winner-take-all system however, something else is brewing. An independent presidential candidate? A grassroots primary where everyone can vote?

IndependentPrimary.com is running an online presidential primary for independent voters until Dec. 18... Word is that Ron Paul and Dennis Kucinich are in a dead heat.... Results will be sent via email to all participants and released to the media after the end of the primary. Log in and vote!

National Presidential Caucus held about 17 grassroots caucuses around the country yesterday.

New Hampshire independents are sticking to their guns

Independent Voters Alliance has a national design for equal and fair ballot access for all citizens

Thank you for the mention - we are on a petition drive and can use your help. We have a goal of 500 signatures by week end, and (hopefully) 800 by NYE.

Can you help us?
