I’m all for closed primaries, NOT spread out over 6 months, and the end of the insanity of a caucus.

That being said, I’ve seen little today to to prove that the “allegations” from NV were anything more than allegations.

Hopefully the rest of the states will be better prepared for the record turnouts

I would be for a closed primary provided the time required to register as a member the party before voting was not inordinately long, maybe 15 days independents and 30 to 45 days for members of another party.

That would give independent voters plenty of time to register before an election but would help to keep members of the opposition party from intentionally skewing results.

Political party’s actually want new members and closed primaries would tend, I think, to discourage new members
