What is a primary?
The purpose of a primary is to narrow the field of candidates for the General Election.
Example: If there are 2 Republican candidates and 1 Democrat candidate for a county commissioner seat, the primary determines the Republican candidate for the general election.
- Primary ballots only contain candidates from one political party.
- In a primary, voters affiliated with a political party may only vote their party’s ballot and may not vote in another party’s primary. For example, a registered Republican may only vote in the Republican Party primary.
- Unaffiliated voters may choose the Democratic, Libertarian, Republican, or nonpartisan ballot. A nonpartisan ballot is only available for Bald Head Island voters, as there are 2 bond referendum items on the primary ballot.
- 17-year-olds can vote in a primary if they will be 18 by the date of the General Election, November 5, 2024. The reason for this is that a primary is a nomination process - you are not electing anyone to office.
