Imagine how big Donald Trump's New York win would be if his own family cared enough to register as Republicans so they could qualify to vote for him this coming Tuesday.
He doesn't need their votes, he's winning by that much. Ultimate alpha power play move by The Donald desu

It's pretty telling that they weren't already registered Republicans. I wasn't either here in CA, had to register for the primary, after which I'll re-register back to no party preference.
>Need to register to a party to vote
What? Is this really how the US system works? Fucking retarded.

I love coincidences.

You don't understand the topic.

Have to keep up the illusion of choice and make it harder for independent third party to get votes.
Someone you like runs independent? Oy vey, goy, you're a registered Republican. That's how democracy works, I guess.

By more than 2? What a runaway.
You had to register back in November for Jew York

>Want to vote in the retarded system of delegates
>Have to register for a party to vote on their candidate
It's retarded. Fucking retarded.

They couldn't because Ivanka was having baby

Political parties can choose to allow anyone affiliated or not to vote in their primary. The Democratic and Republican parties in some states choose to prevent people from doing so. Your hypothetical "Independent Party" can allow registered Republicans to vote in their primary if they wish. However parties generally block people outside the party to prevent sabotage.
Imagine if you gave me the option to choose which comments you can post to 4chan...I'd cripple your participation.

But he does, it's completely fucking retarded.

It's a state by state system. Virginia doesn't require me to register as a member of either party to vote in the primary.

WAIT...WUT? are you trying to say something?
>silverstein
also smells like bullshit
>>70948744
When did two votes make a difference?
>>70949171
The political parties don't run under any real law. They form their own Constitution. You have to be part of the party in order to vote for their policies or leaders.
It makes complete sense in order to stop randoms from coming in and just voting for whoever they think will make the party lose

So it makes complete sense to not let the people choose their representatives?
>>70950914
They're allowed too if they join the party.
They're not picking their representative right now. They're picking the person who will go and campaign to be their representative.
It's a party thing not a national thing.
>>70950914
It makes sense to not let people choose their opponents.
Truly a brainbusting concept, I know.
