Reformation Series: A conversation with Dr. Richard Barton, Democracy Fellow at Unite America


For our newest Reformation Series video, Todd Connor talks with Dr. Richard Barton, a Democracy Fellow at Unite America and a professor at Syracuse University’s Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. In this interview:

  • We discuss how Louisiana, since 1975 when they eliminated partisan primaries, has become one of the least polarized states in the U.S.

  • We look at how the Top-2 open primaries model in California has created a more inclusive, productive governing environment

  • How election reforms and open election systems creates real-world improvements in health, education, and the lives of citizens
