In a primary election, registered voters pick the candidate they want to represent their political party in the general election. It’s also how convention delegates and party leaders are selected. Primaries happen before the main election, both at the state and local levels. In Maryland, they use a closed primary system, meaning only registered party members can vote, though some parties may allow open primaries.
