First, a minor update of the Democratic and Republican infoboxes to include their new logos.
Second, the infoboxes for the notable minor parties in the United States. The Greens and Libertarians are still the crema of the crop, and if you'll notice, they've done reasonably okay, winning quite a few legislative seats. Electoral fusion is far more common in the U.S., and these numbers only reflect straight-up officeholders are officeholders who were elected on a fusion ticket with the Green/Libertarian/etc. party on top. The Greens do very well in the Asteroid Belt where there's more of an emphasis on ecological sustainbility due to living in a closed system, while the Libertarians have begun to fill a particular Inner System social libertarianism nichie opposed to rising social progressivism. The American Heroes Party and the Pioneer Alliance both exist entirely in the Outer System and on the Frontier, with the Heroes on Io and the Pioneers lesewhere. The Heroes Party is lead and supported by veterans of the Ionian Mutiny while the Pioneers are settlers and general Minutemen veteran. Both are expansionist and both have been accused of neo-fascism, and are also nominally aligned with the national Democrats.

That was a lucky one with both parties seeing splits and the Libertarian candidate (a former Republican and former governor) somehow stumbling ahead. It's not really indicative of the strength of the party.
They exist as sort of outreach group or PAC for the larger parties, but not as a built-in structure (it's also important to remember that the Pioneers are essentially stalking horses for frontier Democrats).
Governorships are what you'd imagine they are. Premierships are the same, but on commonwealth level (the level between state and federal that exists on America's offworld holdings).
I see you've made the duopoly a little softer than it was before. Not the multiparty system it originally was, but there's a clear change.
With so many seats, chances are better for some to break through (101 seats is still not even a fifth of a percent of state lower house seats), and they tend to be rather concentrated in a few years. As for the Pioneers, they do exist in a duopoly with the Democrats in many frontier areas. The loser of one primary runs on the ticket of the other, for example.
Basically. An additional step of federalism to make governing easier.

Yeah. I mean otherwise, could you imagine how hard it'd be to handle anything on the planetary or regional level, since the feds have to deal with a ridiculous number of worlds.
Probably some sort of Minutemen-related thing. They're both pretty heavily tied to them.
Because they're best of friends and nearly identical ideologically. The Heroes Party are confined to Io because they were born out of the Mutiny and have their ideology is used to prevent it from happening again, while the Pioneers use their ideology to take, take, take. The meatball roundel is also heavily used by the Minutemen, which both parties are close to.
Fire is a symbol of rebirth, an undying American spirit and the City on a Hill. It's also, in OTL, a common symbol of the European far right and neo-fascist movement.

Eh, they're the less evil party, what with them not being open fascists and all. But I wouldn't call them alright.
Politics in the AJND US tends to be pretty terrible, like everything in the AJND US except for Diving Buddies Inc.
