I'm also intrigued by what the Greens will do as well. They represent the only nationwide third party with automatic ballot status in New York, which is interesting because the fusion law gives them the opportunity to support some major party candidates if they'd like. It would have been interesting had the Libertarians also won ballot status, and IIRC they came really close to doing so. Having these national third parties involved in New York's fusion politics might make them supportive of having it in other states (not that third parties are too sucessfull in implementing laws on their own, but in terms of adding support to, say, a state wide referendum on introducing fusion, like in Massachusetts a few years ago).
