Private equity donors back primary ballot issue

The article discusses a campaign in Massachusetts seeking to eliminate partisan primaries, supported mainly by donations from wealthy individuals connected to private equity, investment, and venture capital firms. Major donors include executives from Bain Capital, Berkshire Partners, and other investment firms, contributing millions to push the ballot measure. Critics argue these large sums may disproportionately influence the election process, raising concerns about the role of money in politics and the potential impact on electoral competition. Supporters claim the new system would increase voter control and competitiveness, though the influence of wealthy donors remains a central point of contention.
