American elections are not actually elections, they are private decisions made by Party Committees and votes are just a suggestion by the “constituents”.
Each party privately selects their own candidate to run, independent of the voters’ will, and then the actual “government” election run by the government is where those privately selected agents get to duke it out in public.
As always, liberal accusations of “authoritarian” socialist states are just another confession. The DNC plays this game the same way the RNC does.
What other logical explanation is there for the lack of universal public healthcare, education, social safety net, Roe v Wade not being codified into law, PATRIOT act, Glass Steagall repeal, 2008 bank bailout, SLABS imploding the economy, illegitimate Supreme Court, RBG and Pelosi holding onto power until they are literal corpses, 6 million dead civilians in the Middle East, 200,000 dead Palestinians, women’s and LGBT rights being stripped away with literally zero federal pushback, committing state sponsored terrorism on Cuba for a century, the list goes on forever.
All done with wholehearted and enthusiastic DNC complicity.
Nope. Primary elections are held simultaneously, and you are only allowed one ballot or the other. But it is a common practice to “sabotage” the other party rather than vote for your own.
What does it mean to register in America? If you’re registered as democrat, what does that mean?

Only registered Democrats can vote in a Democratic primary election, where the Democratic party selects its candidates for a general election.
Only registered Republicans can vote in a Republican primary election, where the Republican party selects its candidates for a general election.
Party registration plays no role in a General election: you can vote for anyone, even if they are not a member of your own party.
Not all states are like that, a few have open primaries.
Can you register with both parties? Choose the best candidate for your party in your primary and the worst viable candidate for the other one?
In 34 out of 50 states if you do NOT register, you can vote for any candidate in the primaries.
But you can still only request a ballot with one primary: you cannot select the best candidate for your party and the worst for the other.
In those states, the request for a particular ballot is, effectively, registering as a member of that party.
