Expert Solution

Option A - Closed primaries allow independents to participate in the party's primary of their choosing.

Open primaries allow voters of any party to vote in any primary of any of the parties. But, in a closed primary only voters registered with a given party can vote in that party's primary.Independents are candidates who are not affiliated with any political party.

So, since independents are not affiliated with any political party, and closed primary would not allow voters who are not registered with their party to vote, the statement "closed primaries allow independents to participate in party's primary of their choosing" is false.
