Majority of Americans see need for a third major political party
(Worthy News) – A majority of American adults believe that a third party is needed in the nation’s political landscape.
According to a Jan. 21-Feb 2 Gallup poll, when asked whether “the Republican and Democratic parties do an adequate job of representing the American people” or if those two parties “do such a poor job that a third major party is needed,” 62% of U.S. adults feel that a third party is needed. That marks the highest percentage ever in the years the organization has tracked sentiment on the issue and it represents an upward shift from 57% in September. A much smaller 33% in the latest poll thought that the two top political parties adequately represent Americans.
While 70% of Independents believe the nation needs a third party, a whopping 63% of Republicans feel that way, while just 46% of Democrats hold that view. Republicans have swung significantly since September when only 40% wanted a third party, while Democrats have decreased from 52%. [ Source (Read More…) ]
