Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The political party seeks to gain legitimate control of government and hold on to it through winning elections and maintaining a majority in the legislature. The power elite, political action committee, and pluralist interest groups may have their own goals and agendas, but they do not necessarily seek to gain and hold onto government control in the same way as a political party.
