  1. Whether or not the Independent Party violated its bylaws is one thing. But how can a party name themselves “Independent” if a major party candidate is allowed to run for and win/almost win their nomination?

    Of course, all this would be less of an issue if Connecticut had ranked-choice voting or approval voting.
