The Claremont Institute has established a fund to pay the expenses for a federal lawsuit against the open primary system in Colorado. This is going through their Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence, under the leadership of Dr. John Eastman.

If all Colorado citizens who think non-party voters should not be choosing party candidates gave something, we should be able to fund this critical need for honest and reliable primaries in Colorado.
The Claremont Institute is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization that relies on the support of individual donors to continue its work. Gifts to the Claremont Institute are tax-deductible.
In 2000 the Supreme Court struck down California’s blanket primary by a 7-2 vote in a majority opinion authored by the late Justice Antonin Scalia, as an infringement on the First Amendment’s freedom not to associate.
Colorado’s Open Primary law is very similar and should also be declared an unconstitutional intrusion on a political party’s freedom not to associate. The First Amendment’s protection of the freedom to associate includes the freedom not to associate.
