CNN aired a story about Independent Kentucky on Wednesday, February 3rd at 8:00 PM on the Campbell Brown show. The story was about the battle of Senate Bill 53, a bill that would allow semi-open primaries in Kentucky. Semi-open primaries are NOT a free-for-all. Democrats and Republicans would still only be allowed to vote in their own primaries. This bill would allow a registered Independent voter to pick a party and participate in the selection process.
Independent Kentucky was contacted by CNN about a week ago when they saw the work being done in Kentucky. CNN wanted to run a piece on Independent Kentucky and how they've rallied people together to support Senate Bill 53. They came to Kentucky for the Senate floor vote on SB 53 and to the Independent Kentucky monthly meeting. Chairman of Independent Kentucky, Michael P. W. Lewis, was followed around all day in the capitol and interviewed about his experience. CNN has allowed Independent Kentucky to link the story on their website:
