Independents can't vote Republican, but can vote Democrat in California?

Yep, the Democratic Party lets anyone vote in their primary but you have to be Republican to vote in the Republican primary. I've already registered Republican so I'll be voting for Paul. If you're in CA, re-register ASAP, the deadline is either here or already passed... not sure.

Yes, it can be true. In each state, the party-specific rules are determined by the specific parties. Remember, these are private organizations.

I think I read the deadline to re-register is in six days (Jan 21st). Need to get the word out fast in Cali!

More evidence that the GOP is racing to commit suicide. I had to change my party affiliation today, because I am a registered indy.

I think you are still good if you do it by tomorrow
