This episode of NYCLA Amicus Curiae with host Daniel K. Wiig features Chad Peace, election law attorney and legal strategist, on the role of independent voters within the current electoral framework.

As Independent voters represent a growing share of the electorate, the conversation examines what motivates and inspires them, and ultimately shapes their participation. Chad addresses whether shifts in voting behavior reflect ideology or gaps in representation within a two party system.

Drawing on his work with the Independent Voter Project, the discussion highlights ongoing efforts to expand access and reconsider how elections engage a changing electorate.

A focused look at the intersection of election law, voter behavior, and institutional design, and why independent voters remain central to that analysis.
