Primary elections

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Primary elections determine the candidates that will run under party labels in the general election. They do not remove elected officials from office or choose actual officeholders. While some states may have their own laws governing primary elections, they are generally regulated by state laws rather than national laws. Finally, while some candidates may need to collect signatures to get on the primary ballot, this is not the primary way in which primary candidates are chosen.
