There are three major differences among the states.
1. In some states they have an open primary. That means any voter may vote for any party.
2. In some states i If you are not registered in a party, then you may not vote in a primary.
3. In some states if you registered as a Republican, then you must vote in the Republican Primary. Same for Democrats. Minor parties usually don't have primaries. To change party affiliation, you must do so before the primary. However, if you are independent, then you may declare at the polling place before voting.
Ask you county clerk's or elections office to get details.
BTW. Learn to use spell check.

That depends on a few things - what state and county you are in, and whether or not you are registered with a political party. In some states, any registered voter may vote in a primary election, but in other states, only registered party members may do so. Sometimes this varies by county, and the smaller parties vary pretty widely.

Some states require party registration before you can vote in a primary election. The state in which I live (Missouri) doesn't, so voter registration is sufficient. Where do you live?
