Apparently unenrolled/independents can participate and vote for either Republican or a Democrat, but if you are registered with either party you can only vote in the primary for the party you registered for. Doesn't sound like there would be much motivation to register for a party in NH. I think if I lived there I would stay independent. In Maine, you have to be enrolled to participate in the caucus (not a primary) and only for the party you enrolled with. It will probably come out different in states like Maine when you consider that the independents won't be allowed to participate.
