If passed, Proposition 140 would fundamentally alter our state’s electoral system and weaken the voices of Arizona voters.
If passed, Proposition 140 would replace partisan primaries with primaries in which all candidates appear on a single ballot in the primary. Regardless of party affiliation, the top vote-getters in the primary would qualify to continue on to the November ballot. In many areas of Arizona, adopting this new system could result in no democratic candidates advancing to the ballot in the General Election. Big-money interests will be able to buy the November ballot. With public school education funding, access to reproductive healthcare, a housing shortage, and rising costs, we must ensure we maintain the representation of these values in our elected officials.
Vote No on Proposition 140 to protect progressive values on the ballot.
