So looking at that page, this is the first I've heard we need to "register" to vote in a primary. Anyone have details on how we go about doing that?

What does the far right column mean? For example, with New Hampshire it says 1/12 (10 days). What's with the 10 days?

That's been up a few days now.

I think this means you just need to be a registered voter.

looks like it is the date that you have to be registered by in order to vote in the primary and the days is the number of days before the election takes place -
for instance for Texas it's 2/04 & 29 which is February 4, 29 days before the March
primary date.

Illinois is a complicated system called a 'Loophole' primary and I really don't understand it.

Thanks. The information they have up there now is totally inaccurate.

You should visit the Mountain State sometime, by the way. :D
