Recap of this page.

Why is there no third party ?

In each state the one who has the most voters takes all the seats. That’s why, even if there was a third party, it wouldn’t change anything.

The US don’t use proportional representation.

US use rank choice voting.

Widespread concerns about President Biden’s age pose a deepening threat to his re-election bid, with a majority of voters who supported him in 2020 now saying he is too old to lead the country effectively.

Voters have not expressed the same anxieties about Donald J. Trump, who at 77 is just four years Mr. Biden’s junior. Their likely rematch would make them the oldest presidential nominees in history.

Regardless of who wins this election or the next one, the American president’s nuclear sole authority is a product of another era, and must be revisited in our new nuclear age.
