In Ohio, registered voters can participate in the primary elections, but the ability to vote in a party's primary is contingent on their party affiliation. Voters must be registered with a political party to vote in that party's primary. However, Ohio has open primaries, allowing unaffiliated voters to choose which party's primary to participate in. To vote, individuals must be at least 18 years old by the day of the election and meet other eligibility requirements.
In Ohio, registered independents can vote in the primary elections, but only if they choose to participate in the primary of a political party that allows independents to vote. Each party can decide whether to open its primary to unaffiliated voters. Therefore, independents must check the specific rules of the party they wish to vote for in the primary.
In the primaries we have to declare which party we want to vote for, so you cannot vote for some democrates and some republicans!
Hillary Clinton won the Democratic primary election in Ohio on March 4, 2008.

From the Ohio Secretary of State web site: "How do I establish which political party’s ballot I am entitled to vote?" "You may vote the primary ballot of the political party with which you currently wish to be affiliated. If you voted the primary ballot of a different political party in 2005 or 2006, you will complete a statement at your polling place confirming the change in your political party affiliation." http://www.sos.state.oh.us/sos/PublicAffairs/VoterInfoGuide.aspx?Section=15
Closed Primary :)
Yes
Are Ohio statutes primary or secondary authority
Closed
No because my mom is not voting in the primary but still gets to vote in the presadential election.
Kansas has closed primaries. Voters registered as Republicans can vote only in the Republican primary; Democrats can vote only in the Democratic primary. Registered Independents can change their affiliation and vote in that primary.
No, you don't have to be a registered democrat to vote in the primary.
