That’s so.. limiting..
I’m in a swing state and can choose to vote for any single party in the primary. Just one. You can declare a party by filling a bubble on your ballot, so if you accidentally vote somewhere you don’t mean to it doesn’t count (the list is big), and if you don’t do that and vote in more than one none count, but if one party is locked in due to incumbent or something, I can vote for the least bad option in the opposing side. I’m not locked in to anything, and I think I’m still registered as a dem from so so many years ago.
Everyone should have that and it’s so weird that we let states decide that sort of thing.
Alternatively, it’s great for a “hit me in the feels” don’t cry challenge when you need to let off weepy steam.
