Create an Independent Party
In the United States, there are more unaffiliated voters than Republicans or Democrats. However, a two party system is expected to meet all citizens' political voice. If you are interested in starting an Independent Party in your area, there are many "hoops" you must jump through. However, if you are successful, it could result in a paying job as well.

Steps
- Register as an Independent Voter at the Town/City Voter Registrar's office.
- At the Registrar's office, inquire as to whether or not an Independent Party exists presently.
- Search online for the Independent Party chairman of your state.
- Contact the chairman and ask for the list of procedures to form an Independent Town Committee and receiving a charter.
- Request an "Alpha List" of local voters from the Registrar of Voters' office. Encourage unaffiliated voters to join, as you must have a minimum of four members to be recognized (Chairman, Vice Chairman, Secretary, Treasurer).
Tips
- Questions can be answered by calling out-of-state Chairpersons, such as Rocco Frank in Connecticut.
- Contacting your Elections Officer at the Secretary of State's Office. They will provide access to running on your local election ballot.
- Registrar of Voters (and other public offices) are paid positions, so winning may result in a paying job.
Warnings
- There are deadlines for "signatures" that must be collected, and submitted, in order to run
- Members of Republican and Democratic Parties may attempt to lie in order to prevent you from success, so be careful who you take advice from.
