[QUOTE]Originally posted by AndrewR: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by TSN: [qb] Because, as I believe I mentioned earlier, it determines how you vote in the primaries/caucuses. In a primary/caucus, the members of each party vote on who they want their party's candidate to be in the general election. Some states make you register with a party ahead of time. Others (like Missouri, where I live) let you pick your party at the time of the primary. (I recently found out that Washington state is weird about primaries, but you can ask Simon about that.) OK, understood, but it's just for the purpose of choosing who is going to 'lead' at the next election... So, WHY ask for your registered party when you go to vote, as I think Jason said he did... dddddddddddda By the way, in the US, you don't technically vote for parties or for candidates. You vote for electors, who are then supposed to vote for a predetermined candidate (but they aren't technically required to). But, as far as the general public is concerned, they think they're voting directly for a candidate, not just for a party. [/qb][/QUOTE] [/QB][/QUOTE]
