There's another distressing pitfall in the election law -- party affiliation -- if you're unaffiliated with a political party, you can't vote in the primaries, and cannot declare or change your affiliation within 30 days of the primary.

However, if you're unregistered, you can register and vote on the 14th. I can't quite wrap my head around how that makes any sense.

(I only learned of this rule after the BoE mailed me a sample ballot and registration information...2 days after the deadline to declare a party change. WTF.)
