6:17 pm
bribery and i believe that's what the president has done. the impeachment hearings resume on friday. abc news will carry them live so that you can watch it as it happens. it begins at 6:00 a.m. right here on abc 7. this impeachment process reflects the ongoing divide between democrats and republicans. here in the bay area, the two parties have some common ground. both are losing registered voters to those with no party preference. abc 7 news reporter david louie looks at this growing trend. >> it's a trend that concerns republicans and democrats. in santa clara county, almost 300,000 county registered as no party preference or npp. year by year the number is growing. >> as people aren't involved in the decision-making process of the parties, as to who the nominees will be, we see more polarization and then that feeds upon itself. >> santa clara county is leading the way with a third of voters
6:18 pm
with no preference. with san francisco, san mateo and alameda counties close behind according to the secretary of state's office for california. no party preference voters are not shut out of the presidential primary. they will send outpost cards to let them choose a party. the state republican party decided not to allow this to prevent people from selecting a less desirable candidate to run against other party candidates. >> regardless of how they register, i think they vote their conscience what's in the best interests of interest of society. >> they'll be asked if they'd like to vote in the primary. the appropriate ballot can be printed on the spot saving the county tens of thousands of dolla dollars. >> we can pre print. >> or the voter can make that decision at the polling place.
6:19 pm
