Should there be a 3rd political party?
It seems that the 2 party system does not address the needs of this country? Thinking along the lines of a middle bridge, that accepts some of ideation of both Democrats and Republicans, but more cohesive stance that will represent the true needs of the people.

I'd like to see a strong 3rd party.
But, that said, I would want a 50% +1 v**e needed to win, with runoffs being used for the top 2 candidates under 50%.

Thought provoking. A 3rd party would add some interesting e******n challenges, but hopefully would promote more balance in the political arena

We really could benefit from TWO parties right now! As it stands, we have the POLITICAL ELITE and the rest of us.

Both of the major parties have worked together to prevent that from happening. They both endorse the 5 percent rule.

There is the Republican Party, then there was the Democrat Party, they turned into the Stupid Party, and they morphed into the Democrat Socialist Party which we have now! No telling what they will be in 2024!
