Minority political parties face several challenges, including systemic disadvantages in electoral systems that favor larger parties, such as gerrymandering and winner-takes-all structures. They often struggle for funding and media exposure, making it difficult to compete against established parties. Additionally, these parties may grapple with garnering public recognition and voter confidence, as they often lack the resources that larger parties have for campaigning. Consequently, minority parties frequently find it hard to translate public support into electoral gains, limiting their influence in legislative processes and political discourse.
