Goldwater Institute Panel Discussion Video – Prop 121 Exposed

Free & Equal Elections Foundation Releases Video of Goldwater Institute Panel Discussion on Arizona’s Version of the Top Two Primary System – Proposition 121

Free & Equal Elections Foundation hosted a panel discussion October 9 uniting experts to examine the problems with Proposition 121, Arizona’s version of a top two primary system. Paradoxically dubbed the “Open” Elections / “Open” Government Act, Proposition 121 aims to limit voter choices, protect the incumbent stranglehold, and increase the special interest influence of elections.

Barbara Klein, president of Arizona League of Women Voters, served as facilitator.

Panel participants:

  • Arizona Green Party co-chairman Angel Torres
  • Arizona Libertarian Party communications director Barry Hess
  • Save our Vote Arizona legal counsel and Republican Michael Liburdi
  • Arizona Democratic Party executive director Luis Heredia
  • Free & Equal and Stop Top Two founder and chair Christina Tobin
