Last week IPNYC.org, IndependentVoting.org and Open Primaries sponsored a press conference bringing together over 150 New Yorkers on the steps of City Hall to protest NY's closed Presidential Primary which bars 3.2 million New York voters from casting ballots in today's Primary election.
Speakers at April 14th Press Conference on the steps of City Hall: (L to R) NYU Student Leader, Ali Akbar M. Hassonjee; NYC Independence Clubs, Juliana Francisco; Open Primaries President, John Opdycke; Assemblyman Fred Thiele; IndependentVoting.org President, Jackie Salit;
New York City Independence Clubs, Alvaader Frazier.
They received strong press coverage with over 20 print, radio and television pieces.

No American should be forced to join a political party in order to vote!
So a committee was launched to make sure this is New York's last Closed Presidential Primary, and that all elections are open to all voters.
