Dear Readers:

The Hill just published my op-ed, titled "Frustration alone won't change the two-party system," which you may access with the hyperlink. In the article, I explain the need for serious structural reform if we are going to have genuine third parties. I will explore this theme in greater detail in my book, "Parliamentary America: The Least Radical Means of Radically Repairing Our Broken Democracy" (forthcoming JHU Press 2024).

I hope you are all well.

Max
