In any state do you have to vote in the primary election in order to vote in the presidential election in November?

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.
