After a 2022 Independent Party gubernatorial convention in which party chairman Mike Telesca voted to break a 79-79 tie between businessmen Bob Stefanowski and Rob Hotaling, the Party nominated Hotaling. Hotaling failed to garner the necessary 1% to maintain ballot access for the Independent Party, and as a result, any Independent Party member who does not live in an area governed by a local IP town committee forfeits their membership.
