Around 60% of US States allow registered voters to indicate a party preference when registering to vote. It is highly unlikely that the party affiliations noted by voters when registering to vote is at that time, or remains, 100% accurate. A registered voter is able to change their indicated party affiliation.

Aside from General & Local Elections, indicated party affiliation (or even non-affiliation) may limit the types of elections for which a voter is eligible and some elections may require party membership.

SevenOP,
I came to Spain in mid January to house/cat sit. I got caught up in the lockdown and when flights resumed I thought it safer here in an isolated house in the country than I woukd be back home.
I'll stay a while longer.
I hope all the ABers and family and friends are keeping well.
