Register To Vote As Democrat

[MothMan]

If you would like to vote in the Democratic presidential primary in NYS one must be registered as a Dem voter, as we all know. The deadline for registration to vote in primaries is soon approaching. This may change but the old guard is resisting. As of now, voters in New York must change their party registration by October 11th, 2019 to participate in the 2020 primaries.

IMO being affiliated with the Republican Party in NYS is like being the tribe of apes on the wrong side of the waterhole in 2001 A Space Odyssey.

I got to vote against Hillary twice last go round didn’t change much but sure felt good. Also have voted in local Dem primaries just my way of participating. Then when I get to the kiosk to bubble in my sheet only the Shadow knows who I voted for. Try it you might like it!!

In 2020, New York will get 327 delegates to the national convention thanks to certain bonuses afforded by election law changes, according to Jacobs.

In 2016, New York had 291 delegates.

WTF NYistan needs less vipers in the pit not more. Another bid to steal the elections.

I've been registered dumb for many years. It does feel good pulling the primary lever for Teachout as opposed to Monkeyface. They still got the last laugh though

In Massachusetts ( where I’m stuck for one more year), you can register as independent ( actually undeclared) and on primary day you get choice of ballot either dem or republican. Since many dem primaries are hotly contested winners margins often slim.

I almost always vote against incumbents in dem primary

I used to do the same, and prefer Mass system. Never made a difference though, where I am from is pretty entrenched.

In NY, independents can only vote in independent primaries.

Do you have to get one? No. But you qualify for a free one if that's the route you want to go down.

Same. For several election cycles now.

Then we can plan how best to spread the votes around.

Sort of like little rabbit turds.

Spread the votes around? More like concentrate the votes to a candidate we'd rather see run and lose against the repub candidate we want. Why spread them around to water down our vote?

Exactly.

Or at the very least, cause an incumbent to spend a shit ton of dough during primary season, which is what we wanted to do to FUAC with Cynthia Nixon.

"Vote for the homo, not for Cuomo!"

 

[masterswimmer]

Don't forget when we tried it with Teachout to run against Astorino.
