Speak for Yourself
IVN is a platform for communication between independent voters, public officials, civic leaders, and journalists that is unfiltered by the partisanship that divides our larger public dialogue.
Protect Open Primaries
Last election, Californians voted to end partisan primaries. Now the parties are trying anything undermine the jab at their power.
About the Organization
IVP is most well-known for authoring California’s Proposition 14, the “Open Primary Initiative,” which was passed decisively by the voters in the 2010 election.
Mission Statement
IVN is dedicated to restoring the importance of open dialogue, engagement, and constructive compromise in our political system.
The Network provides a news platform for voters and candidates who speak for themselves.
A New Kind of News Network
IVN is a platform for communication between independent-minded voters, public officials, civic leaders, and journalists that is unfiltered by the partisanship that drives the larger public dialogue.
IVN will encourage the intellectual competition inherent in diversity and will protect the integrity of that competition by requiring that all participants adhere to a simple and easy-to-understand site etiquette.
