Can Independents vote in the Virginia Democratic primary
Hi,
I am a registered voter in Virginia, but I am not a registered member of any party. Do I have to register again (like, with the party maybe?)to vote in the primary? -Dan
As I understand it Virginia is like Texas in that you do not register as a member of any party and are therefore eligible to vote in the primary of your choice. If you still have questions, contact your local registrar.
Thank you. I checked the registrar's page you sent me and it confirms what you wrote. All that is required is that a person is a registered voter. -Dan
Which in itself seems like a rule that each party should look into. If I were making the decision I would not allow non-party members to vote in the party primaries.I think the results of the Republican primaries so far have been badly skewed by cross over voting .

Possibly, but you can still only vote in one primary...at least theoretically.

P.S. After yesterday's games I no longer have a dog in the hunt for SB champ. Do I pull for NE and the 19-0 season, or do I grit my teeth and cheer for the Gnats?
Steve ; in the Michigan primary the Kossaks were openly lobbying for Democrats to vote in the Republican primary since all Dems but Hillary boycotted the Democrat primary( 32% of identified themselves as independents or Democrats) . All the early primary states have had cross over and indie voters .
It is no suprise then that the Huckster and McCain have been doing so well then. The indies love McCain and it is no secret that the Dems would like to run against the Huckster .
Florida will be the 1st only registered Republican Primary. I think it will clear up alot of the confusion as to who really is the front-runners in the race.

Good point, I didn't take Michigan into consideration.

You know, I thought you might give me the old pull for division champ line or something. As much as I hate to say it I will probably pull for the Giants. Their RB's did more for me in FF than the Pats' did
If I was in your shoes I'd root for the Pats.
