Since some primaries are open.. which means anyone can vote in them.. then you can have republicans choose who your Democratic candidate is?.. seems to me that is a bigger problem than going to the caucus for 2 hours. We are talking about choosing the candidates. Now the caucus is a pain in the ass because you have to get yourself over there in the cold .. etc etc.. but it is what it is where I live. The one thing I am sure of. The person next to me voting for the candidate that will be on the ticket, has registered to be a Democrat.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
