I don’t know which state you were in. And I’m trying to figure out how you knew which names were democrat, and which were republican.

If they were in different lists, doesn’t that mean they were voting in the democrat primary, not the republican primary?

Or are you claiming that in your state, democrats show up, sign in to a “democrat” voting list, and then vote in the republican primary?

In my state, there’s one list of voters, and if there are two primaries, you tell them which primary, and THAT is the list they put you on, democrat or republican.

The reason I ask which state is, in Alabama 205,000 people voted in the Democratic primary. So there would be quite a few names on a “democrat” list for the democrat primary in any particular precinct.

Mississippi has an open Senate seat, and there are primaries on both sides, so about 100,000 democrats showed up for that race. Al Gore won that primary.
