It is important to note that primary elections are centered on party nominations. In the primary a registered voter may only vote on the ballot of the party that they are affiliated with if they are enrolled in one of the four major political parties (Democrat, Republican, Green-Rainbow, and United Independent Party).  Voters whose party status is "UNENROLLED" (often referred to as Independent) may choose one party's ballot to vote on in the primary. Voters who are members of Political Designations (not political parties) can choose which party's ballot they would like to receive. Only the Democrat, Republican and Green-Rainbow parties have candidates on the March 1, 2016 ballot. The United Independent Party (UIP) will have ballots available but with no candidates printed on them.  Voters registered in UIP will not be eligible to take a Democratic, Republican, or Green-Rainbow ballot.
