Third parties, in a mainly two party system, are not meant to win. You know this when you vote for them. Voting 3rd party is a threat to you main party that if they don't change they will lose even more votes.

@Poppy Rider I'm in europe so there are also 2 levels (think the eu as the federal state and countries as states). In the european parliment there are 9 parties represented. In Portugal (the country that i live) there are also 5 parties represented in the portuguese parliment

2018-09-24 13:13:52 UTC  

2 parties or 9 its still just a bunch of career politicians trying to rile up votes for themselves.

2018-09-24 13:13:57 UTC  

Look at UKIP in the UK. Their only goal was to have a referendum on membership of the EU. At most they got 15% of the vote but after that they got their one and only policy enacted by the Tories.

tories havent followed though and now ukip is branching out into other polocies

2018-09-24 13:14:55 UTC  

@arivatana What sort of vote share to those parties get?

2018-09-24 13:16:00 UTC  

UKIP need to keep their eye on the ball right now. Yes Islam is a problem but if we don't leave the EU then we can't do anything about it.

Here in portugal we have 2 main parties (center left(28%) and center right(36%), but the center left made a coalition with the far left parties (8% and 5%) which granted them the majority. the far right party (12%) did not reach an agreement with the center right. These are rounded numbers

Wat

2018-09-24 13:25:36 UTC  

Yeah, here the Europe we have a mainly two party system but the third parties can hold some sway. In the US it is nowhere near these numbers.

2018-09-24 13:27:16 UTC  

`here the Europe we have a mainly two party system`
🤔

2018-09-24 13:27:43 UTC  

Yeah, two strong partys that get between 20-30% each, sometimes even more and a couple smaller ones

2018-09-24 13:27:50 UTC  

Sorry, i was looking at the wrong numbers:
Center right - 39%
Center left - 32 %
Far left - 10% + 8%
Nature party - 1%

2018-09-24 13:31:02 UTC  

Yeah, In Europe voting for a third party can get stuff done. In the US you would need a massive change in voting patterns for voting 3rd to have an effect. They are 'trapped' in a two party system and have been convinced if they vote 3rd party they will let their enemy win.

Politics is a long game and should be played as such.

2018-09-24 13:37:11 UTC  

I’ll vote the popular if either candidate comes up to me with a plate of meatballs, a toothbrush, and toothpaste.

2018-09-24 13:37:25 UTC

- Many people would ship Mario and Bowsers bro-mance
- They're okay with transexual if theres an authentic transform by magic, not just looks
- People still want big titty goth gf's
- Anime culture finds a way to survive
