What does it mean to be part of a party and declaring your side?
In New York, in order to vote in the primaries you have to be part of a political party to vote for who you want to represent that party. I wanted to vote for Bernie in the primaries, but since I was undeclared I had to become a democrat in order to do so. I got the paper work back and it said I was a democrat, but because of the stupid laws I couldn’t even vote in the primaries because it was too soon to swtich?!?! But then I found out today all that didn’t even matter soo... yay lol
But in other states they have open primaries, so you could vote for who ever you wanted regardless of what ever political party your part off. I really hope NY changes to that.
