"There were anecdotal reports of big turnout in Republican precincts in Indiana – with, presumably, Republican voters asking for Democratic presidential ballots. 11% of the voters in Indiana tonight were Republican-- and they went for Clinton over Obama 52% to 46%."
Of course, it would also be possible to close all primary elections, but I think disenfranchising Independents would be a graver injustice.
Thirdly, the nomination process represents INTRAPARTY BUSINESS. As you're obviously not a member of the party, your opinion doesn't matter anyway. Democrats are free to choose their nominee any way they see fit.
