If the ballots are supposed to be secret, I wonder why Bernie Sanders people texted my wife after she didn't put down a party preference on her ballot. I could understand the voter registration office contacting her, but why would Bernie Sanders people get access to the information that she didn't put down a party preference?

With no party designated, her ballot doesn't count. It can be corrected (my wife got a letter saying she didn't select the party, and could send in the correction.) |

BOTH parties agreed to what we are seeing.
Part of declaring a party is to give which ever party you choose access to your contact info for campaign purposes. I will try to find the link. ETA: Link to King5 story From the link: "The designation, per the legislation, also will be a matter of public record for 60 days. That means either state party can use the voter database for future elections or fundraising." |

Primary party designation is for that primary election and that primary election only. I selected dem and voted for Tulsi. Because I wanna see exactly how dirty the DNC can get in screwing over both Tulsi (see debate rule changes) and Sanders (because duh, and lol).

Why isn't Independent & I'm NOT a fucking Communist a party choice????
Why must it be on the outside of the ballot & not in the secret sleeve???? |

My theory is, if your information is public information for the first 60 days and your family and friends can look it up, that keeps people from going off the reservation even if they wanted to for fear of being chastised. |

Didn't really see much use in it as its like 13 commies and only Trump. Of course our vote in the real election will mean just as much in this state but it still feels good

Perhaps the whole idea of forcing a declaration of party is to negate spoiler votes from republicans who would vote for a democrat candidate who doesn't really have a chance of winning. Many just can't get themselves to declare as democrat, so their vote gets negated.

It's almost as if the two parties run the political mechanisms of the country, and aren't interested in independent voices having any say.

I saw the King County election workers unloading the ballot box today and a thought occurred to me.
What's to stop loyal comrades from throwing all envelopes marked Republican in the trash? It's not like there is any privacy on those ballot envelopes. |
