On September 7th, the California Senate passed AB 837, by 27-13. It Provides that Election Officials will Inform Independent Voters of their Ability to Choose the Presidential Primary Ballot of a Party that has Authorized Independent Voters to Vote in its Presidential Primary.

Posters will be placed at the Polling Places.

Independent Voters will be Notified by whatever means are available to contact them directly, whether E-Mail, Text, Postal Mail, or Telephone. The Information will also be in the Government Voters’ Guide.

Generally, Democrats voted “Yes” and Republicans voted “No”. The only Exceptions were that Democratic State Senator Steve Glazer voted “No”, and Republican State Senator Anthony Cannella voted “Yes”.

The Bill had already Passed the Assembly, but it must return there because the Senate Amended the Bill.

In 2016, the Democratic, American Independent, and Libertarian Parties, let Independents Vote in their Presidential Primaries. The Republican, Green, and Peace & Freedom Parties did not.
