Freeps talked about voting against Kerry in Mass primary Tuesday. Can they?

[blm]

Are GOPs allowed to cross over in Mass.for the primaries? Is this more PUMA actions against those Dems who supported Obama early?

Any Mass DUers who can offer insight into what's going down on Tuesday?

1. dah, that shows how dumb they are

you have to be a resident. :wow:

[HughMoran]

2. Silly thought anyway

Wouldn't make any difference.

[kskiska]

3. Jerome Corsi once claimed he was moving to Massachusetts

so he could run against Kerry when he was up for election. Guess he changed his mind.

[blm]

10. Like Corsi or any freeper REALLY wants to debate Kerry. heheh. That worked out so well

for every other person who has debated Kerry. After the debates in 2004, the RNC and GOP officials had to go into overdrive to steal that election for Bush.

4. yeah, open primaries

you can walk in door as a repub, change your registration to dem, vote, and then switch back to repub as you go out the door

5. Used to be you had to be registered as "Unenrolled" to be able to select either ballot.....nt

[LiberalFighter]

6. Why do they have their primary so late?

[blm]

7. Dunno... not familiar with that part of Mass politics...but, it's Tuesday.

I never delved into it because it was never an issue before with Kennedy and Kerry races.

Since freep actions against Dems are more common now, and PUMA's seeking revenge against Obama supporting Dem lawmakers, it now seems to be an issue.

[ThomWV]

8. You can not vote against anyone, you can only vote for someone else

There is a great difference between the two.

[blm]

9. Yes, they can, and it adds up the same way.

.

[Raven]

11. I think they can...in the primaries. I hate to admit it now but I crossed

over in 2000 and voted in the Republican primary for John McCain against Bush and then changed back. But you have to be a mass resident.

[blm]

12. So, if there's low turnout but antiKerry GOPs and PUMAs are motivated to vote

out of revenge, the know nothing O'reilly could pull this out with the help of GOPs? Sheesh. Lieberman depended on GOPs and they came through for him.
