Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The median voter theorem states that political parties will try to appeal to the median voter in order to win elections. This means that both parties will try to put forward policies that are similar to each other to gain the support of the majority of voters. Thus, parties in a two-party political system tend to put forward similar policies because of the median voter theorem.
