The Election Reform Committee of IndependentVoting.org comprised of Rick Robol (Ohio), Catana Barnes (NV), Steve Richardson (VA) and Joe Pickering (ME) have created a candidate questionnaire.
"We want to help local chapters identify potential partners in the building of the broader reform movement and to educate candidates about the concerns of independents," said Robol.
From the Preamble:
"Independent activists around the country are working to change the culture of American politics by disrupting the incentives and structures that maintain politics as usual. With this in mind, we invite you to respond to the concerns of independent voters, concerns that are deeply important to us and rarely if ever addressed in our current political system."

If you are an activist, and would like some guidance as to how to use the questionnaire in your local area, contact the Election Reform Committee through Rick Robol at rrobol@robollaw.com.

It seems bizarre that a candidate would be influenced by a group that sends him or her a questionaire, asking questions about the candidate's own state election laws. One would think a candidate would expect a questionaire to be send by voters who live in the candidate's district, or at least the candidate's own states. So a questionaire sent by local people wouldn't ask the candidate if his or her state has registration by party. A local group would already know that.
