Third parties are political parties outside the two major parties that seek to influence public policy or elections. Although they rarely win major offices, third parties play important roles by raising awareness of neglected issues, influencing major party platforms, and shaping public debate. Historically, third parties have introduced ideas that were later adopted by major parties.
