If enough people wrote in "Charles Repke - Independence Party" and he got the most votes, would he have to move on to the general election, leaving Vento and Cardinal to look for jobs, and exposing himself to a thrashing by Betty? Would would the Independence Party say about that mischief?

For those of you who haven't noticed, (and seeing I was the first to vote at my poll at 7:30 not many of you have noticed) today is Primary Election Day.
As a long time advocate of party registration, today is a great example of the mischief that can be caused be one's ability vote in any primary one chooses. In the Fourth District the DFL has no primary for congress, the incumbent will be on the November ballot. However, both the GOP and Independence parties have primaries. Now some DFL'ers might see this as a time where they could vote for the non-endorsed GOP'er who is off in Italy somewhere, but a real mischief maker would look at the Independence Party ballot and see a choice between Peter Vento (Bruce's brother) and Bob Cardinal (pro-life Mayor of Maplewood). Hmm let's think about this in the general election with three names on the ballot do I want one of them to be "Vento" who will steal votes from the DFL incumbent, or do I want the pro-life Mayor of Maplewood who has already attracted a strong following of GOP'ers to his banner in his suburban elections? Hmmm? What would someone do?
Now, don't you wish we had party registration?
