OK. I'll keep the GOP and vote as I please.

We don't have many libertarian candidates around here.

f you change the registration, then you'll get a primary ballot with the libertarian candidates only. You won't be able to vote in the Republican primary.

this is exactly why I am going to re-register as a republican.

At this point, I think that helping to avoid RINOs is the most important thing that we can do.

and I think that Lindybill is correct that the tea party is essentially a libertarian movement that is operating through the republican party.

the thing that I like about the tea party vs the Libertarian party is that they have focused on the basics. Smaller government....that's a really big tent.

Libertarians tend to be too ideological and unwilling to compromise. Because of this, I don't see the party as being viable.

Washington doesn't have party primaries. You just vote. The candidate "lean" Republican or Democratic or whatever.
