ARIZONA'S CURRENT ELECTION SYSTEM CREATES INCENTIVES FOR PARTISAN DIVISION AND DOES NOT ALLOW OFFICE HOLDERS TO WORK CONSTRUCTIVELY IN A BIPARTISAN MANNER AND IN THE BEST INTERESTS OF THE STATE WITHOUT BEING SUBJECTED TO THE THREAT OF BEING FIRED IN THE NEXT PRIMARY ELECTION. CURRENT LAW IN ARIZONA DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY SEND EARLY BALLOTS TO NONPARTISAN VOTERS, ONLY TO PARTISAN PARTY AFFILIATED VOTERS. NONPARTISAN CANDIDATES MUST COLLECT UP TO 6 TIMES AS MANY SIGNATURES TO GET ON THE BALLOT, AND THEY MUST PAY FOR VOTER LISTS THAT THE PARTIES RECEIVE FOR FREE. ARIZONANS AND AMERICANS ARE IN LARGE NUMBER GIVING UP THEIR PARTY REGISTRATION, MANY AS AN AFFIRMATIVE STATEMENT THAT THEY ARE DEEPLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE EFFECTS OF PARTISANSHIP. OPEN PRIMARIES NOW, INC. (OPN) IS AN ARIZONA EFFORT TO ENSURE THAT ALL VOTERS AND ALL CANDIDATES ARE TREATED EQUALLY AND IN DOING SO MAKE IT POSSIBLE FOR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO REPRESENT THE ENTIRE ELECTORATE AND NOT JUST PARTISAN PRIMARY VOTERS.$0$15,783
