This bill would replace party-only state primaries with one open primary ballot for all voters and all candidates. The top two vote-getters, no matter their party, would move on to the general election. It would let independents vote more easily, push candidates to appeal to a wider public, and reduce party control over who advances. Governor and lieutenant governor would run as a team.
