How do European parties differ from American parties?
What will be an ideal response?
In Europe, where there are no primary elections, parties are stronger and have much tighter control over nominations, campaigns, candidate funding, and elections. American parties, due to federalism and a tradition of individualism, remain loose associations of local, state, and national organizations. The European proportional representation system also results in the viability of smaller parties that can get representation in legislatures even with a small proportion of the vote.
