In Boston on January 22 a packed hearing featured Rep Luce’s plan for Minnesota style primaries with state conduct and direct nominations.

The measure, open to all voters, would let ballots show Republican and Democratic or Socialist options at the guard rail. The House, after debate, receded and referred the bill to election laws.
