Yes. North Dakota has open primaries. In an open primary, any registered voter can participate in any party's primary election, regardless of their own party affiliation. Independent voters can vote in any state with an open primary system without registering as a partisan.
North Dakota is unique in not requiring voters to register to vote. Consequently, it does not maintain any voter registration system. Anyone who is a US Citizen, 18 or older, and has lived in North Dakota for at least 30 days before an election can vote. North Dakota operates an open primary, allowing voters of any partisan alignment to vote in any primary they choose. Early voting begins 15 days before the election, and the state allows no-excuse absentee voting by mail.
Yes, it can be. In some states, independent voters face barriers like closed primaries that exclude them unless they change their party registration each election. Others offer open primaries, allowing all voters to participate regardless of party. Some states make registration seamless with same-day options, while others require voters to plan weeks or even months ahead.
Navigating these challenges takes awareness and action—but that’s exactly why the Independent Center exists. We’re here to empower independent voters, break down barriers, and build a movement for real change. Join us and make your voice heard.
