January’s ICBC Book: The Primary Solution: Rescuing our Democracy from the Fringes by Nick Troiano
Party primaries were invented over a century ago to democratize candidate nominations, but today their exclusionary rules and low turnout guarantee the exact opposite: only a small fraction of voters wind up deciding the vast majority of our elections. Nick Troiano, founding Executive Director of Unite America, makes a bold proposal to abolish party primaries in our country. In a divided America, the biggest solvable problem fueling political extremism and dysfunction s hiding in plain sight: party primaries. The Primary Solution shows how to fix them.
