Just wondering why that is... to not allow one to vote in the second primary seems to violate the equal protection clause of the constitution. After all, if the dem voters can get a do-over the all voters should get a do-over. The right to change one’s mind about a candidate should not apply to just one party! Law suits should follow...this could be fun to watch.

This I agree with!

I don’t see how they could limit the voting to some voters.

They are in for a can o’ worms here.

Primaries are State and National political party INTERNAL votes. They just happen to use State general election machinery and money. There is no ‘equal’ protection general election protection since these are PRIVATE associations selecting a nominee for a general election, just like the ELKSs or VFWs.
