Taking my oath in the next few days, after 10+ years as a Green Card holding Lawful Permanent Resident of the United States of America ... I LOVE this country.

Wondering though, if there is any value to register myself as a democrat to see what their approach is in my city, which is in a swing state? (FYI: I WILL vote every 2 years and WILL vote for either Trump or Republican as a 2nd option)

A friend is an ex-LEO and his wife is still registered as a dem, the rubbish she gets about their party is ridiculous (she votes RED), I feel like adding to their waste of time and resources is part of my patriotic duty to my new country.

Any thoughts?

It depends partially on what state you are in...you can register as "no party affiliation" and somtimes vote for either party...or some states...you wouldnt be able to vote in certain contests...ie dems dont allow an voter not registered as a dem to vote in primaries.. while republican party does...

basically..you can change your party whenever you want up until about 90 days before an election, so it doesnt matter so much right now what you register as.
