If your state has open primaries, you don't need to register Republican to vote in their primary though?

    No. That's the point of an open primary. You can vote in either party's primarily.

    I'm in a pretty red district. My primary vote is more powerful when voting Republican.

    Why register Republican if you don't need to register for a party to vote in a primary? Open primary means you don't need to be registered with the party to vote in their primary. So why register Republican?
