What is a party Primary?

The Democratic and Republican party may nominate their candidates by either a primary election or by convention or mass meeting. If the party asks for a primary election for the November election, it will be held on the second Tuesday in June. A primary called for the May general election will be held in the first Tuesday in March.

Can anyone vote in a Primary election?

If you are a registered voter, you may vote in any Primary election. However, if a primary is held for both parties in the same election district, you must choose in which primary you wish to vote and you may only vote in one primary.
