lmao in the US you need to register with a party and can't just choose in the booth what you want to vote?

Can't they register as independent? I'm not familiar with US politics.

You register with a party so you can vote in the primary. The primary decides who the party's candidate will be in the general. You can vote for whoever in the general. You can register as an independent, but you can't participate in either primary.

lmfao

Depends on the state; here you don't have to be a member of the party to vote in that party's primary.

What is the likelihood that someone running independent will win? Does it happen a lot?

>lmao in the US you need to register with a party
No

Hasn't happened since Washington.

That only applies to closed primaries, which are the minority of primaries.
not in the presidential election, but for the primaries they do that so you cant sabotage the other party by voting in both of them

Aren't you forced to vote in your shit country?

Literally no one voted for our last 3 Prime Ministers, they just take the position

I know that, because your parliament is a meme tier laughingstock. But when you do actually manage to have elections isn't voting mandatory?
>>55966944
you don't need to register for a party, thats only for some primaries which makes sense because why should a Democrat determime what the Republican canidate is?
>>55969823
I'm pretty sure only Washington was
