Cool. I still think the idea of open primaries is insane. If a voter can't pry their stoner ass off their Pringle/Cheeto encrusted sofa and register as a Democrat in advance of the primary, they shouldn't have a say in who represents the party.

Open primaries encourage rodent fornication.

Agreed. However...

I don't think it's stoners who are the problem. Seems to me it's terminally miffed, terminally unique, Starbucks swilling millennials.

Almost 24% of California's registered voters are independent.
If only registered Democrats and Republicans can participate in the primaries, the two parties should pay for conducting the primaries, not my tax dollars.
