@FlaDems The saga is now, even more so, a made for TV drama. Kristi Noem suited up for the media today, and those deported to Columbia in the botched flight had been detained by the Biden administration. The spectacle is just getting started. Buckle up.

Frank Barry outlines why party bosses from both sides of the aisle are actively working to keep our primaries closed and why it’s time we embrace reform:

@drkalin_md@NickTroiano Same happened in Florida a couple of years ago. The "election integrity" bill had an amendment slipped in at the last minute banning RCV. 😡
@NickTroiano AK had proven the case, and Final 4 Voting is on the verge of being repealed.
The Trump wave and Republicans' opposition to RCV torpedoed our efforts this year.
Democrats killed our initiative for top-two primaries in 2020.
These initiatives went down in general elections.

To be clear, the attempt to repeal open primaries in Alaska is not because it didn't work in 2022.
It's because it worked exceptionally well –– giving voters a lot more voice, choice, and power.
Hence why party insiders are trying desperately to take that power back.
A complimentary screening of the documentary @MajorityRules24 will be available for all registered attendees 48 hours before and after the event. https://t.co/WWHDOukVVB

"...Three-quarters of respondents said significant system reform is needed to US politics. Is it any surprise why local and state-based election reform efforts have seen tremendous growth over the last decade?"
