No because my mom is not voting in the primary but still gets to vote in the presadential election.
Yes, you can still vote in the presidential election even if you did not vote in the Montana primary election. Primary elections and general elections are separate, and not voting in the primary does not disqualify you from voting in the general election.
if you want to vote
I know for a fact in TN you can vote for the general election and not have to vote in the primary election. I think it is that way everywhere, because the presidential election is very important and more people turn up to vote for it. I heard on the radio that this was one of the worst turn outs for voting in history. I think everyone is saving their strength for the general election.
A primary, or primary election, is the election in which voters decide which of the candidates within a party will represent the party in the general election. So basically, when people vote on who will run for the democrats during the presidential election, it's a primary election. Voting on the actual president would be the general election.
Yes, you can. I found this in fairfaxcounty.gov "Virginia is an Open Primary state which means that any registered voter in Virginia can vote in either a Democratic or Republican primary. When both parties are holding a primary election, you will be asked which primary you want to vote in when you check in to vote with your photo ID."
You are eligible to vote in the US when you turn 18. If you can vote in a presidential election, you may be eligible to vote in the primary, even if you are 17.
An open primary means that anyone of any party, including Independents, can vote in that election. The Presidential Preference election requires either Republican or Democratic party affiliation.
No. While exercising your right to vote more often than every 4 years is awesome, you don't have to vote in any one election to qualify to vote in the next one. If anyone tried to prevent you from voting on the basis of your voting history, they are violating your right to vote. You should calmly state that it has no bearing on your right to vote today, and that you intend to do so. If the person continues to obstruct you, call your local officials and insist that you be allowed to vote. Anyone who tries to stop you from having a voice probably doesn't have your best interests at heart.
Yes

The electors in each state are elected by the popular vote in the presidential election and swear in advance to vote for the presidential candidate who wins the election in their state.
