Dinner for Democracy: Third Parties and Independents

Session Is Over
-
Weill Hall (Ford School) - 3240 Turn Up Turnout

Note: this is an in-person event on the Ann Arbor campus.

The United States has had two major political parties for most of its existence. Throughout the country’s history, minor third parties have coalesced around specific interests and ideologies but have rarely had major electoral success. However, third parties have helped shape the platforms of the two major parties and have affected the results of multiple presidential elections.

Join Turn Up Turnout for a nonpartisan, educational presentation to learn how Third Parties and Independents have and continue to shape politics in the United States. FREE FOOD provided.
