accounts
Which AVTS
accounts are running open primaries this year and when do they start early
voting?
Ken
There may have
been some confusion on this, so I will elaborate. Open primaries (using
GES parlance at least) means putting a party-specific races for more than one
party on the same ballot. Closed primaries means seperate ballots for
each party. Open primary accounts sometimes use party preference races,
sometimes they just disallow crossover.
The AVTS does not
currently handle open primary ballots. I need to know if we have any
AVTS accounts run open primaries this year. I would also, for the
record's sake, like know what GEMS accounts and States run open primaries
and/or use party preference races.
