New Yorkers need solutions—now.
We know the issues holding us back. But we also know there are sensible, bipartisan measures that could bridge the divide and deliver the tomorrow we deserve—if we choose to pursue it. Unite NY believes we can.
More choices. More voices.
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
Eliminate unnecessary ballot access obstacles that restrict qualified candidates from running for office, and open races to accommodate insightful, impactful voices the two-party duopoly—and embody real democracy.
Initiative and Referendum
Permit U.S. citizens to place integral legislation on the ballot for popular vote.
Ranked Choice Voting
Allow voters to provide preference of candidates, not just one vote.
Vote at Home
Expand availability of at-home convenience to increase voter participation.
Open Primaries
Enable access in primary elections for independent and unaffiliated voters to encourage maximum participation, produce better candidates, and return power to where it belongs: with the people.
