[EL] Legality of Primary Raiding?

[Yael Bromberg]

Good evening,

I saw reports today that members of one party are being openly encouraged
to raid an open primary held by another party in an effort to skew results.

My question is: Is this legal? I have not studied this particular issue
closely, but it rings of a violation of the associational rights of the
party holding the primary, and practically it sounds like a form of fraud.
Are citizen oaths required before engaging in open primaries?
