text: The largest percentage of voters in this country (42%) identify themselves as Independent/undeclared. But they don't have a say in the primary choice for our representatives and leaders. LeDoux is offering an honest opportunity to correct this and engage more Alaskans in government.
  
  What is Jenkins against in this? Democracy?
  
  In a typical move, he's labeled democratic/open primaries as "jungle primaries," undoubtedly to inject a little dog whistle of racism into it. Calling names is a sure sign that he's scared of the logical arguments supporting an open primary. 
  
  Another typical partisan move, he creates a hostile, us-against-them/winner-loser binary mentality in his screed. My brothers are Republicans and I'm not, but I love them, and they're Alaskans who want good things for our families. 
  
  I believe Americans and Alaskans are getting tired of this. 
  
  The last election gave us Hillary and Trump as the best choice partisan politics could offer. I want better. I want open primaries
