 | register to vote |
Hey, quick! If you want to vote in California’s February 5 primary, the last day to register is TOMORROW, Tuesday, January 22. Print out this form and get it in the mail.
Also interesting: if you register as “decline to state” your party affiliation, you can still vote in the Democratic or Independent party primaries in California. (Sorry, the Republicans apparently don’t want to know whether you prefer John or Ron or Fred or Rudy. Or Mitt. Or whoever else is on the ticket.) More about primary voting for those registered “decline to state” here.
Or if you don’t want to vote in the primaries, you can register online after February 5.
(For info on registering in other states, click here.)
Isn’t it interesting that the Republicans are the only ones who don’t want “outsiders” voting in their primaries…
here’s a question: if you’re registered (as something or the other) can you change your “affiliation” if you’ve already voted?
or do you have to wait until after the november election, where you can vote for whomever you wish anyway?
(probably grammatically challenged in that above sentence, sorry).
Or, do you know?
In CA, I think you have to re-register to change your affiliation, and you’d have to do that 15+ days before the primary. (In general elections, obviously, you can vote for whomever you want regardless of party affiliation, but in primaries you can only vote in the primary for the party you’re affiliated with. Unless you decline to state. I think.)
