[@tauceti8060]

Why is there only two parties in the fedaral and state legislarures in the US?In a lot of European countries there are so many parties that a coalition is a must to form gov't.

[@panachevitz]

It is incredibly difficult to create a national party in the US so most attempts at a 3rd party fizzle out either due to being a one-issue platform or the inability to appeal to a wider audience for whatever reason. There are more Democrats or Republicans than there are people in Germany, and there is a lot of inertia in the system because of that. In the states, there is more variety and smaller parties can elect some people to office, but it is a very hard task to create recognition for your platform, get voters to vote for you, and grow a party.

[@brentswells]

One simple reason: the winner take all voting structure. Whoever gets the most votes a congressional district (or state for the Senate or President) gets the whole thing and no other party gets anything out of it. Even if they got millions of votes. European parliamentary democracies don't ignore those other votes. Parties get representation proportional to how many votes they got, which allows small parties to exist.

Imagine North Dakota with a population of 700,000 has the same vote in Congress as New York with 22,000,000. Basically grass and mountains decide how American citizens live.

[@OldRustySteele]

Dear TaxChurches, you are WRONG. In the SENATE, ND and NY both have 2 senators each. In the HOUSE of Representatives, NY has 26 representatives while ND has only ONE. So, NO, New York and North Dakota do NOT have equal representation in Congress. NY has more. Read a book. Learn facts. It’s pretty simple.

[@TaxTheChurches.]

@@OldRustySteele Get real. I'm glad you know these things the rest of us learned in 7th grade. Trump was impeached by the Democratic House and found Not Guilty by the Republican Senate. Those 2 ND senators chose to put America through this clown nightmare again in 2024.
