Like it or not, the public perception is that and are indistinguishable.

This election it’s just incredibly clear from objective standpoint when you look at transfer patterns - for both FF and FG, about 50% of transfers going to second candidate of that party and 50% go to the twin party ie transfers between them are for all intents and purposes the same. “The meaning of a system is its outcome”

1/2

I’m trying to understand why they won’t coalesce in a new party. Maybe it’s ego, tribal, but also maybe they’ve run the numbers and seen that their total performance would drop in share if they do. 2/2
