Ask Dawn and Vern; Cross Political Party Allegiances

 

Dawn: Oh, actually it's not all that uncommon...the issue at hoof is which party the candidate is representing the majority of....which usually tends to whittle down to Preygressive or Preditionalist.

Vernon: Granted a few third, forth and fifth party folks will run from a purely outsider position, but usually it'll break down to maybe two er' three candidates total to pick from....er' at least the ones ya know got a real shot at winnin'...

Dawn: As the candidates sort of whittle down, the parties whose representatives didn't make the cut will often choose to endorse one of the leading candidates who align most with their own interests. And if said candidates agree with those endorsements, they'll often take on the party title as a...well 'sub' party.

Vernon: Naturally, the Tundratown candidate would have a vested interest in also supportin' the Pachyderm Party...considerin' she's a member of the elephant and general Megafauna family.  Even if the Pachy Party has less chance of winnin' over a more general public candidate. But a Preygressive candidate who also understands and wants to help Megafauna would overlap interests with both.

Dawn: Technically there's no limit to the number of parties you can associate with...which can make it pretty confusing, but on the other hoof it does require you to pick a candidate that you feel most represents your values, and what values you feel Zootopia should have...which means doing research.

Vernon: Somethin' most folks hate doin' when it comes to votin'...*Chuckles*

Dawn: That's how you get a Lionheart...*Giggles* well that, and lots of financial backing from the 'right mammals'.
