More Voices, More Choices
Unite NY thinks democracy in New York is a good thing. Wouldn’t more democracy be better? We are working to make that happen.
Unite NY invests in reforms and candidates that will focus on a fairer, more open State government, that allows New Yorkers to succeed on their own rather than having to rely on the government. We work to support the right leaders with the right incentives to solve our state’s greatest problems.
By building collaboration among leaders from all parties and persuasions, Unite NY will seek to address New York’s greatest problems with common sense solutions. For far too long, we’ve been told that to participate in our democracy, it is necessary to choose one of the two major parties. That’s simply not true or healthy.
This two-party doom loop leaves New Yorkers out in the cold and diminishes the voices of more than 2.7 million voters that don’t feel at home enough to register in either party.
Want to join Unite NY in taking our State back from Party bosses and reforming our government?
More voices, more choices.
New York needs to change, but it won’t happen until residents can choose from a diversified list of candidates who truly represent their voice — instead of begrudgingly selecting between the lesser of two evils on a ballot. There are ways to do this, and, in turn, create a more accessible, equitable, and democratic government for us all.
More Candidates
Make it easier for candidates to get on the ballot so voters have more choices.
Term Limits
The pursuit and maintenance of power has resulted in some bad outcomes. Let’s fix that.
Initiative and Referendum
Let’s allow voters to have a say on important issues. Maybe then important issues will get addressed.
Ranked Choice Voting
RCV ensures the most popular candidate wins while making sure candidates are seeking the broadest support — not just catering to the extremes.
Open Primaries
Preventing 3 million voters from participating in primaries results in candidates selected by the extremes. We can do better.
