Which statement best describes the difference between an open and a closed primary? A. Open primaries lead to runoff primaries while closed primaries assign delegates on a proportional basis. B. Independent voters can vote in closed primaries as long as they only vote in one party’s primary, while registered voters can vote in both open and closed primaries. C. Open primaries assign delegates on a proportional basis, while closed primaries are winner-take-all. D. Only voters who are registered members of a party can vote in a closed primary, while independent voters can vote in open primaries.

D. Only voters who are registered members of a party can vote in a closed primary, while independent voters can vote in open primaries.

Explanation:

Option D is correct because in primaries there are closed and open primaries. In closed (also known as partisan), it allows only declared party members (registered members) to vote.

Whereas in open primaries (nonpartisan) all voters are enabled to choose which party’s primary they wish to vote (they are independent voters).

Primaries may also be direct or indirect primary.
