Dozens of former Republican and Democratic officials announced on Wednesday a new national political third party to appeal to millions of voters they say are dismayed with what they see as America's dysfunctional two-party system.
The new party, called Forward and whose creation was first reported by Reuters, will initially be co-chaired by former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang and Christine Todd Whitman, the former Republican governor of New Jersey. They hope the party will become a viable alternative to the Republican and Democratic parties that dominate U.S. politics, founding members told Reuters.
Party leaders will hold a series of events in two dozen cities this autumn to roll out its platform and attract support. They will host an official launch in Houston on Sept. 24 and the party's first national convention in a major U.S. city next summer.
The new party is being formed by a merger of three political groups that have emerged in recent years as a reaction to America's increasingly polarized and gridlocked political system. The leaders cited a Gallup poll last year showing a record two-thirds of Americans believe a third party is needed.

The “Death to America” Party?
Hard to win followers with no policies.
They need a charismatic leader (and a boat load of dough) to make this viable. Right now I don’t see either.
Split the Vote so Dems win party
Just another way to make sure a conservative never wins. Can anyone say Ross Perot??
Run by a couple of what, G listers? Tell me you all you need to know. Guess Bob Kerry and Al Gore were busy sorting their sock drawers. Has Mitt joined yet?
The Monkeypox Party.
John Anderson says hi.
LOL! This $h!t reminds me of the “No Labels” party attempt a few years ago.
Fail.
Every couple of decades or so the “moderates” form a third party hoping to lure folks from Republicans so more Democrats can get elected.
They get adoring mass media coverage to help their slimy scheme.
They promise “civility” but it is the usual leftist wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Yeah, they’re like totally different from the Uniparty. Like a whole bunch different.
I think this will split the Dems more than the Republicans. There are still some Democrats who don’t like the insanity of the far left. Republican voters are mostly hard-core conservatives.
“..Hard to win followers with no policies. ..”
Hard to win followers with a bunch of losers who stand for nothing.

Vorwarts! Vorwarts! (anthem of the Hitler youth)
I miss Oklahoma. It’s too cold here and too many squishy nicey nice types. It bleeds over from MN.
The third parties target suburban Republican housewives in swing districts.
.
Designed to hurt the Republican candidate.
Pretty damn obvious
This will stop once polling shows it’s drawing indies and soft dems from the Dem party.
Elvis McMuffin waits breathlessly by his phone out in Utah... hoping, no - praying, for the call to come. He will be the chosen one.
