The Democrats are in Texas!!!!

No, we don't have separate voting booths. Each time we vote, we have to sign a registration (they have an alphabetical list of every person registered to vote in the district) Then, in the primaries-they must have some kind of button or something that can control the individual voting booth. Because when I go in, it won't LET me vote for any other party.

I'm not sure how it works for independents, though. I don't know if they can vote for ANYONE or for NO ONE!!! JessLeo might know-she's from Pa, and she is REALLY into politics!!!

Sorry, missed this one somehow. I'm not 100% sure how it works, since I've only voted in one primary so far. I wasn't old enough before. But, my mom is a registered independent, and she can't vote at all in the primaries. I think it's called a "Closed primary," so you have to be one or the other to vote. Otherwise don't bother showing up.
