The Common Sense Party of California is a centrist political party in the U.S. state of California.[2] It was founded in 2019 and is currently chaired by Tom Campbell.[3]
History
The Common Sense Party was founded in 2019 by former Republican representative Tom Campbell, former Independent state Senator Quentin Kopp, and former state Commerce Secretary Julie Meier Wright to serve as an alternative to the Democratic Party in California, which currently controls a supermajority in the state's government.[4][5]
On January 27, 2023, the Common Sense Party and Forward Party announced a coalition in California with the goal of achieving the necessary 73,000 registered voters to gain qualified political party status in the state.[6]
Principles
The Common Sense Party strives to advance policies and endorse candidates that foster inclusion and engagement in governance. The party advocates for political reforms that bolster environmental safeguards, allocate resources to support individuals who encounter obstacles to success, and optimize investments in education, healthcare, and transportation.[7]
