The Center Party is dedicated to bringing civility back to politics, to bridge the divide between the extremes of the two major parties, to chart a course for government that represents the mainstream and center of public opinion, and to stop radical changes to our government, either from the left or right.
Democrats spend too much money, continually increase taxes, disrespect our immigration laws with a purposely open border, and ignore the crime on our streets.
Republicans try to create extreme restrictions on abortion, embrace election conspiracy theories, and bring chaos to government.
Is this really where we’ve come to in today’s America? Where have all the adults gone to? The politics of personal attacks has frightened many good Americans away from public service. More people leave the major parties every day because neither party represents them anymore.
We are starting this effort in Colorado at the state level. Colorado is a purple state, but where are the purple legislators? We expect that our candidates will be independently minded and not necessarily adhere to every aspect of our platform. We do not intend to use our party structure to bludgeon our candidates into one dogma, but here is our platform starting point that we believe best represents thoughtful governance between the extremes of the two major parties.
We support a change in the voting regulations to ranked choice or approval voting as a means to broaden our democracy, help 3rd parties, and eliminate the “fear of throwing away your vote”, thus discouraging a vote for a 3rd party.
