2024
The political landscape takes a drastic change.
A strong Independent Party emerges, capitalizing on the nation's weariness with the two traditional parties.
A credible and charismatic Independent Presidential candidate runs in 2024 and makes major inroads.
2024 Presidential election
Independent 210 EV 33% PV (Green)
Republican 189 EV 34% PV (Blue)
Democrat 139 EV 33% PV (Red)
Not only does the Independent Presidential candidate make major inroads, but Independent Party candidates for the House and Senate win substantial seats, resulting in a three way split in the House and Senate.
House standings, Republican 152, Democrat 147, Independent 136, with no party controlling a majority of the state delegations.
Senate standings, Republican 37, Democrat 35, Independent 28.
A period of political uncertainty takes hold.
All three parties soon realize they will have to compromise and work closely together in order to choose a President, choose a Vice President, and pass legislation that is for the good of the country, not for the good of the party.
