That is true but there was a discussion here last week about the ballot. IIRC, you can vote the Dem ticket but if you color the bubble next to Cheek, his vote counts. Correct me if I'm wrong. (I'll also see if I can find the thread.)
I would interpret that to read that I can vote straight Dem (fill in the bubble next to the party name) but still fill in the bubble for Cheek. So maybe I was right after all.
I found and posted that. You're right.
