That's a tough one.
On the one hand, change happens faster than ever (look at how SSM went from being almost unthinkable in the 1990s to being almost universally accepted by the end of the 2010s).
On the other hand, the parties are entrenched, now perhaps more than ever: no minor-party candidate has won an EV since 1968.
I voted between 2050 and 2100, on the slight chance that the following happens: the GOP splits into a populist wing and a more Establishment wing. Almost simultaneously, the Democratic Party splits into a quasi-socialist wing and a more Establishment wing. Thus we would have four parties, not two.
Trouble is, I have no idea which sides would retain the name "Republican" and "Democrat". Anyone else what to chime in?
