In MD it's a closed primary so independents can only vote in the general elections. There are actually almost as many independents here as there are Republicans. When people say the state is 2-to-1 Dems to Reps they never mention the large independent population.
Wish the indys would pick a party so they can have a say. It's not like the state government with their veto-proof majority is going to open the primaries up. Heck, they just voted to have residents apply for permanent mail in ballot status and add voting drop boxes at prisons. I'd rather be a registered independent too, but I'm not giving up my ability to vote in any primary.
