Prop 140 would let independent candidates be on equal ground with party candidates. Do you think we'd see more independents running in future elections?

Arizona is majority independent. While I believe most of that is borne from disillusionment with the top parties becoming their extreme selves, and the impetus behind 140, do you think if 140 passes we'll start seeing independent candidates run just as much as Republican and Democrat candidates? 140 will allow independents to run with just as much signatures as the Parties. But if all Arizonans can vote in all the primaries, do you think independents will return to Party once they relax to welcome back their moderate exiles? Therefore would it still be hard for true independents to run?
