Pundits ignore us. Primaries exclude us. Political scientists say we are just “closet partisans.”
Nonsense.
The Independent Voter Project (IVP) is a 501(c)4 organization that seeks to re-engage nonpartisan voters and promote nonpartisan election reform through initiatives, litigation, and voter education.
We believe being independent is a mindset, not an ideology. It means thinking for yourself, having the confidence to allow free expression of opposing ideas, and being humble enough to learn from others.
IVP launched a new website accompanied with a new about video. See above.
