An open primary is a primary election that does not require voters to be affiliated with a political party in order to vote for partisan candidates. In a traditional open primary, voters may select one party's ballot and vote for that party's nomination. As in a closed primary (such that only those affiliated with a political party may vote), the highest voted candidate in each party then proceeds to the general election. In a nonpartisan blanket primary, all candidates appear on the same ballot and the two highest voted candidates proceed to the runoff election, regardless of party affiliation.

  • 開放式投票，又稱開放式初選（Open primary）。 分兩種，一是「封閉式初選」，即登記為同党的選民才能投票；另一種是開放式初選，即任何選民皆可投票，即可以跨党投票。 候選人如果經費充足會傾向於開放式初選，因為他/她完全可以擺脫政党的約束，利用傳媒宣傳自己的主見，將胜利之匙操在自己手中，政党領袖更喜歡大會推選，最多也是封閉式初選，這樣政党才有著力點，否則政党的影響將消失無蹤。 (zh)

  • An open primary is a primary election that does not require voters to be affiliated with a political party in order to vote for partisan candidates. In a traditional open primary, voters may select one party's ballot and vote for that party's nomination. As in a closed primary (such that only those affiliated with a political party may vote), the highest voted candidate in each party then proceeds to the general election. In a nonpartisan blanket primary, all candidates appear on the same ballot and the two highest voted candidates proceed to the runoff election, regardless of party affiliation. The constitutionality of this system was affirmed by the Supreme Court of the United States in Washington State Grange v. Washington State Republican Party in 2008, whereas a partisan blanket primary was previously ruled to be unconstitutional in 2000.The arguments for open primaries are that voters can make independent choices, building consensus that the electoral process is not splintered or undermined by the presence of multiple political parties.
