If you are orange, you MUST register as a Republican for the primaries (for the most part). See http://www.fairvote.org/?page=1801 for details.

You mean that I (living in North Carolina) can still remain Unaffiliated and cast a primary vote for RP?! If this is true, it is GREAT news!

You should include the list of state names, it's somewhere on the forums.

Actually, WV is changing its procedure this year.
Instead of a primary, there's going to be a closed convention.
I'm still not sure how it's going to work. I'll post more information when I have it.
People should still register, as I think what will happen is the Republican committees in the counties will elect delegates to the convention.

I would also recommend voting absentee (if you can) if your State uses Diebold.

Imagine the convention 75% filled with Ron Paul supporters. I'm guessing those attending the conventions will vote for the candidates... =)

It may be a good idea just to go ahead and register, even if you're in a gray state, just in case of any surprises.

I'm from NY and unaffiliated.
I heard that in NY you need to be registered republican for a year before being able to vote in the primaries. Is this true. If it is, I can't vote in the primary, and neither can the Ron Paul supporters I've converted.

Illinois x Must vote in primary of same party as last primary vote. Loosely enforced.
When I vote in the primaries does that mean I am stuck as a GOP voter for life? What about democrats wanting to vote for Paul?
Strange democracy? Loosely enforced?

Everyone should check their own state personally. This map does not seem very accurate. I know here in NH you don't have to be registered as Republican, I have always registered as undeclared. You can vote in either primary, but not both. I believe Mass. is the same way.

I guess it's a good thing I forgot to register as an independent after the last election. I hardly vote Republican anyway. Ron Paul is the reason for me to stay registered, even if he is the only Republican I'd vote for.

I checked Florida. There doesn't seem to be any constraints to changing parties at any time...
Nice....
I don't trust this map. It is a FACT that you must be a registered Rep to vote for Dr. Paul in the Iowa caucus (though you can register on your way in the door here). A caucus and a primary are not the same thing. In fact, not all caucuses are operated the same - or primaries.
In short - do your homework before your primary/caucus.

I agree, definitely better pre-registered as republican for this than sorry j.i.c.

According to http://www.elections.state.ny.us, you have until August 24th to register to vote in the primaries.

I registered about 2 months ago, I got notification back this week indicating that I'm able to vote in both the NY primaries and the NY general. I'm set.:)

North Dakota and North Carolina are backwards on that map! Here is a revised one but be sure to check: http://www.fairvote.org/?page=1801
