[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In 2016, I switched from D to R to vote against Trump in the primary. Now, I just switched from R to D to vote for Blair (hopefully) or whoever has the best shot against Elrich[/quote] yes, this exactly. I switch back and forth based on local and national elections and which party's primary is more important. It is an easy task. Critical to do this in MOCO where the primary is effectively the general election. More residents need to understand this and VOTE in the primaries. It is fine to be an independent but it means that you have NO VOICE in a closed state like Maryland. Party registration is meaningless. BE PRAGAMATIC![/quote] Unfortunately, raising awareness about this will have to be at the grassroots level. Both parties have a vested interest in preserving the duopoly. The legislature could change Maryland to an open primary state but that too would take a lot of grassroots pressure. [/quote]
