Registration for the primary election closes on July 30, and if you are registered as an independent or did not check party affiliation on your registration form to vote, you cannot vote in the gubernatorial, congressional, or for any other political office.
You can vote in the general election, but you do not get to choose who is going to run for governor. Only Democrats and Republicans can vote in the primary election for governor on August 28. Even if you selected independent, then change to a political party like the Democratic Party or Republican Party Why? Independents cannot vote in primary elections. You cannot vote for Adam Putnam, Andrew Gillium, Gwen Graham, Ron DeSantis, Chris King or Philip Levine.
Look what happened in the last election: Thousands of independent voters could not vote in the Democratic primary between Hillary and Bernie and thousands of independent voters could not vote in the Republican primary between Trump, Bush and Rubio. If they could have voted, we would have a different President.
