Description

Maryland Primary Day is June 23. Only Democrats and Republicans can participate in the primary elections, leaving out the fastest growing group, independent voters. The state-funded and state-organized primary ballot leaves out third parties while officials are elected only by 20-25 percent of voters. But three third parties are expected to be on the ballot in the November general elections. How do they see the state's politics? Sunil Dasgupta finds out from Andy Ellis, the Green Party's candidate for Maryland Governor. Music from Seth Kibel's brand new album, Clarinet Without A Net.
