The applicant may indicate that he is an independent.

No more than one change to a voter's party affiliation or independent status on his registration record shall be permitted within a 12-month period. Voters may change their party affiliation at any time before the registration records are closed prior to an election, except that voters who are designated as independent may change their independent designation to a political party affiliation at any point after registration records are closed prior to a primary election, including on the day of the primary.
