Question

Which is a major argument against the closed primary?

Answer 1

Answer:

A closed primary is a type of primary election in which a voter must affiliate formally with a political party in advance of the election date in order to participate in that party's primary. Other primary election types include: 1) open primaries, in which a voter either does not have to formally affiliate with a political party in order to vote in its primary or can declare his or her affiliation with a party at the polls on the day of the primary; 2) hybrid primaries, in which previously unaffiliated voters may participate in the partisan primary of their choice; and 3) top-two primaries, in which all candidates are listed on the same primary ballot and the top two vote-getters, regardless of their partisan affiliations, advance to the general election.
