The answer is B. Only party members

Nash Anderson · Answer 2

The correct answer is only party members. That means that independent voters cannot participate in a closed primary. "Independent" meaning not affiliated with any political party. There are 14 states that have closed primaries: Delaware, Florida, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Nebraska, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Pennsylvania, Oregon and Wyoming.
