The function of a primary election is to choose one candidate from each party with the most votes who will face off in the general election.

Explanation:

Both the Democratic and Republican parties hold primary elections in order to choose one candidate (from each party) that will face the candidate of the other party in a general election.

For example, the Democratic primaries will take place between February and June 2020. 3,979 pledged delegates will be elected to participate in the Democratic National Convention where the Democratic presidential candidate will be voted.
