Washington's presidential primary is underway. Are you ready?

Voters began receiving ballots last week for Washington’s March 12 presidential primary.

Here are a few things to know if you plan to participate.

This primary is unlike regular elections as the results are used to allocate delegates to Democratic and Republican candidates seeking to be their party’s presidential nominee in the November election.

While Washington voters do not register by a political party, in this election they must choose one to participate. Voters must sign a party declaration on the ballot return envelope and can only choose a candidate from that party. In other words, a person who signs the Democratic Party declaration must vote for a Democrat. If they cast their ballot for a Republican it won’t count.

1. Kind of a non-event for us.

I briefly toyed with the idea of voting for Haley, but several people here pointed out what I already knew, that it would be like farting in a hurricane.
