In most states you have to be registered with a party to participate in primary elections because the ballots are closed to those in the party. How fair is it that the candidate for a general election are chosen by most accounts by the far left and right. If you take Connecticut's primary for senator last year you saw how unfavorable Ned Lamont was to the populus. Now if this were an election for democrat we would not have the option to vote for a leiberman type our choices would be Ned Lamont and the right wing version of Ned Lamont, both of which are popular among a small portion of the total voting populus.
