The Independent Movement is Starting Now!

Help Us Break the Biggest Story of 2026

Washington, DC - SPIN Washington DC was packed with attendees to help kick off America’s independent movement on Wednesday. July 23, 2025, will go down as the day independents called the meeting to order. Independents are not undecided or uninformed; they are unhappy with business as usual in American politics.

Independents running for office and voting in historic numbers will be the biggest story of 2026. The Independent Center is a resource for reporters and others who need to understand this development in American politics.

If you missed the event, watch the highlight reel below.

If you want to break this story, we would like to speak with you. We have years of data, AI analysis, quantitative and qualitative insights, and a novel political strategy to spearhead this movement.

Speak to:

  • Adam Brandon, Senior Advisor, will discuss our strategy to flip House seats and deny both parties a majority, forcing the House to come to the table on key issues like entitlements, healthcare, and immigration.
  • Brett Loyd, CEO of the Bullfinch Group and IC polling and research partner, will discuss who independent voters are and what they want from a pollster's perspective.
  • Lura Forcum, President, will discuss why independents' political engagement is the best tool for making government more responsive, representative, and effective, as well as the cultural forces driving growth in this movement.

###

The Independent Center is the go-to organization for information, research, and engagement with independent voters, who now make up the majority of the electorate. We represent those who are fed up with partisan politics and feel politically homeless. We believe the future is not red or blue; it’s fiscally responsible, socially inclusive, and free to choose the best options for ourselves, our families, and our communities.
