AMA: Nick Troiano - Executive Director, Centrist Project Posted: 01 Dec 2016 09:57 AM PST Hey Reddit! I'm excited to be with you today and answer your questions on, well, anything. My name is Nick Troiano. I'm the Executive Director of the Centrist Project – an innovative political organization that seeks to disrupt the two party duopoly by strategically electing independent candidates to office via a new Centrist "unparty." I'm based in San Francisco, CA but grew up in Milford, PA. I've been involved in the political reform movement for a decade – working on causes including Unity08/Americans Elect, The Can Kicks Back, Run for America, and Change.org. In 2014, I ran for U.S. House (PA-10) as a citizen-funded, independent candidate at the age of 25. [I recently wrote about my journey in political reform here: http://www.centristproject.org/nickintro.] After this most recent election, I think it's more important than ever to be talking about ways to get our political system working better and bridge the growing partisan/ideological gap in our country.
