With the recent election of 2016, having most of the population thinking they have to choose “the lesser of two evils” I’m curious to know what ever happened to 3rd parties? It seems as though anyone to brings up 3rd parties is looked at like a lunatic with no valid understanding of politics. There seem to be myths that cloud the judgement of many voters that are already uneasy with the duopoly, yet they don’t even consider researching another party. Granted, most information comes through mainstream news, but I’m curious as to if now is the time for a political shift to come about, can there ever be a rise of a 3rd party?
