Technical question: I don't get what that registration is. Was he a member of the party?
Is it just the registration to be eligble to vote and if yes, how the fluff does it contain info on the party? Doesn't the US have secrecy of the ballot?
In most states, only party members can vote in their party’s primary elections.
Primary elections are held before the general election to pick the party’s candidates for the general.
That's kind of true, but it depends. Most states don't have laws requiring closed primaries and allows the party to choose which voters to include. However, in general the Republican party tends to have closed primaries when possible.
They are closed in Pennsylvania, though.
