Op-Ed in San Jose Mercury News on Prop. 62

Ballot Access News editor Richard Winger wrote an op-ed opposing California’s Proposition 62 in today’s San Jose Mercury News. The newspaper previously endorsed a vote in favor of the measure.

Proposition 62 would enact a Louisiana-style election system where only the top two candidates in the primary would appear on the November ballot, regardless of party. This would result in third parties rarely appearing on the November ballot in California.

  1. Prop 62 is a distraction.

    Proper remedies –

    Proportional representation for legislative body elections.

    Approval Voting for executive/judicial offices.

    NO primaries are needed
