No Popocrats, can they be a major party

WI somehow the Populist remained a separate party in 1896 and the Democrats ran a conservative bourbone

Could Democrats have some third?

Could the Populists have eventually have appealed to the working class in the cities?
 
I'm actually making a timeline about this. In it, I have the Populists do better than they did in 1892, but still come third behind the Democrats. They might pass them later though. I imagine that any rise would be fairly slow, they aren't going to be the party of farmers one election and then the party of workers the next, it would take a couple for them to grow.
 
Wait, what?

At first I thought you were talking about American politics, but what do the Bourbons have to do with that?

And "Popocrats" is an unfortunate name if there is one. (In some languages, "popo" means "butt".)

Bourbon Democrats were a faction within the Democratic Party, and their name is something of a joke about European politics.
