Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In an open primary system, voters are not restricted to voting for candidates that match their registered political party. Both Ned, a registered Democrat, and Jaime, a registered Independent, can participate in an open primary and vote for Democratic candidates. Closed primary systems, on the other hand, only allow voters registered with a particular political party to vote in that party's primary. The terms "free primary," "Australian primary," and "partisan primary" are not commonly used in the United States and do not refer to any established primary system.
