[edit] Background
In Guam, elections to the Legislature and multi-member boards are run via open primary (This following the outlawing of the previous blanket primary) similar to Louisiana.
Both the Public Auditor and Consolidated Commission on Utilities are required to be nonpartizan and as such candidates are not allowed to state affiliations or list them on the ballot.
In the case of the Auditor, affiliating with a party is grounds for disqualification.
