No.. As such one side could if they crossed over in the primary and voted for a weak candidate so later they can vote against them.. You vote for the person either way, just makes it harder for those that want to play games. Also you can also vote how you want as in a WRITE IN vote. Henry.. No..

Does this mean candidates for District-2 BoCC race will appear on ALL ballots throughout the whole of Escambia County, Florida? Example: A registered voter in District 5 will be able to vote on the District-2 County Commissioner? Maybe I am misreading this...haven't heard of this before as thought District-2 BoCC, School Board members are elected by those residing in that district. Reading the article and seeing:

As it is, if you want your vote to have any influence on a Primary Election you have to be either a D or an R. I was an Independent from 95 to 2003 and would prefer to be an Independent or NPA now, especially now. To get rid of partisanship in government, getting rid of it in Primary Elections would be a good place to start. Florida needs to become a Cross-over Primary State.
