1. It looks like you have to be registered to a party
at least according to this voter registration form

3. Your boss is correct - it's a closed primary
Only registered Dems & Republics can vote for their specific party. Independents had until last week (I think) to change registration to Democrat/Republic, but if you wanted to switch from Republic to Democrat (or vice versa, perish the thought) - you had to do that either 3 or 6 months ago.
