Q.
If I chose a party do I have to vote for all of their candidates?
A.
It depends on the election. In primary elections, you can only vote for candidates from the party to which you belong. In general elections, you are free to vote for anyone you like, regardless of their party affiliation.
Q.
I just registered and received a card in the mail but there is a mistake on it; what do I do now?
