The Center Square
The Center Square bills itself as covering statehouse and statewide news in different states throughout the country with a "taxpayer sensibility" and focus on "state- and local-level government and economic reporting."
A new bill pending in Congress would mandate open primaries across the country, giving roughly 23.5 million registered independents a chance to nominate candidates for federal office.
The “Let America Vote Act,” sponsored by Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, R-Pa., and cosigned by Reps. Jared Golden, D-Maine; Andrew Garbarino, R-N.Y.; and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, D-Wash., would impact 22 states where primary elections remained closed to registered party members.
