________ tend(s) to drive out minor parties.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Plurality rule and single-member districts favor the two major parties and make it difficult for minor parties to win elections. In single-member districts, only one candidate is elected, meaning that a candidate needs a plurality of votes (more votes than any other candidate) to win. This often leads to a two-party system, as smaller parties struggle to gain enough support to win. Majority rule does not necessarily drive out minor parties, as minority parties can still have a presence and influence in government.
