I figured I should not change parties but rather continue to vote for responsible republicans in the primaries. My mom is an independent on Tuesday she went down to vote and was told there were no candidates to vote on as an independent.

In other words, you ignored evidence that was already posted when you made your post. Contrary evidence can be so inconvenient at times.

So does Maryland, the argument being if you won't declare for a party why should you have a say in who represents the party.
