The Democrats chose from a list of possible Democrat candidates, and the Republicans vote on who they want to represent them in the big election.
If Republicans could vote in the Democrats primaries, the Democrats would be pimping Al Sharpton, and the Republicans would be pimping Dan Quayle.

Some states, including mine, have open primaries, but most have closed primaries.
