Is America’s Two-Party System Coming to an End?

In light of the aforementioned factors, conversations about the potential end of the dominant two-party system have arisen. Republican John Kasich shared his thoughts on the matter via ABC:

“I don’t think either party is answering people’s deepest concerns and needs. I mean I don’t think it’s going to happen tomorrow. Over time do not be surprised if these millennials and these Gen Xers begin to say, ‘Neither party works, we want something new.’”

The Ohio governor then expressed his views on midterm elections before slamming Democrats:

“People want me to criticize my party. Let me tell you about the Democrats. I have no clue what they stand for. We are heading into a midterm election where they are counting on the Republicans bouncing the basketball off of their foot and out of bounds … But how can you have a national political party that has no agenda? Just no agenda.”
