Second, the two party system we know today did not exist for decades. The Republican Party didn’t even exist until the 1850s. There were the Federalists and the Whigs and the Populists. The current Democrats v. Republicans dynamic didn’t arise until the last 100 years or so. — PolitiTweet.org

Third, the 2 parties were relatively ideologically similar until the 1960s. The polarization we are seeing now is historically abnormal and almost unique among countries. Other democracies tend to have more parties too (e.g. 5 in the UK, 7 in Germany, etc.). — PolitiTweet.org
