One Missed Deadline Could Cost You Your Primary Vote 🗳️
Not sure if you need to disaffiliate? Here’s the simple breakdown:
✔️ Registered Democrat or Republican?
If you want to vote in the other party’s primary, you must disaffiliate at least 30 days before the election.
✔️ Registered as Unaffiliated?
You do not need to disaffiliate. You can choose either party’s primary ballot and you’ll remain unaffiliated after voting.
The law changed in 2024, so unaffiliated voters no longer have to complete any paperwork after voting in a primary.
Check your voter registration before the deadline to make sure you’re ready to vote!
