Arizona Horizon – Voting Rights for Independents is a Civil Rights Issue

Cathy Stewart, Independent Voting’s VP of National Development, appeared with Maricopa County recorder Adrian Fontes on the PBS’s award winning show Arizona Horizon to talk about the voting rights of independents.

Thirty-three percent of all voters and forty-one percent of Latinos in Arizona are independents.  Independents can vote in every Arizona primary election except one – the presidential primary.  Independent Voting and its local affiliate – Indys4AZ – have been in the trenches working to change this and found an ally in Democrat Adrian Fontes.
