The statistic shows a representative survey on the public view in the United States whether a third major political party is needed or not, from 2003 to 2023. As of October 2024, about 58 percent of Americans expressed the need of a third party, while only 37 percent of respondents stated that both parties do an adequate job in representing the American people.
In your view, do the Republican and Democratic parties do an adequate job of representing the American people, or do they do such a poor job that a third major party is needed?
