This proposal would let voters who are not registered with any party vote in one party’s primary for Congress or President. States could not share these voters’ names or contact info with political parties, and could not mark them as party members just because they picked a party’s primary that year. To keep using certain federal election funds, states would also have to allow unaffiliated voters in state and local primaries and follow the same privacy rules. The Election Assistance Commission could give states transition grants for up to five years to help cover costs. These rules would apply to elections held after the law is enacted.
It also says noncitizens cannot vote in federal elections, and ties some federal election money to states certifying that noncitizens cannot vote in state or local elections or on ballot measures.
