    Same here. I have to think tho if they really wanted to could the find out who we voted for or does it just check you that voted and your ballot gets mixed in with everyone else’s?

      You register with a party, but if you vote in person they just verify your name against the registration, you don’t sign your ballot.

      If you mail in your ballot, you signed the outer envelope, not the ballot, so after verification of the signature hypothetically they discard the envelope and just run the ballot.

      In any case I don’t think there is any record kept of who votes for what candidate.
