Political parties gain members: DNC at 90-100, GOP at 55-65


WASHINGTON DC, USA - For a considerable amount of time, the fear of partisan politics has been particularly prevalent throughout Congress. Although the extremity of voting against every bill proposed by the opposite party has not yet been reached, and a good denomination of legislators remain independent, that boundary may soon be surpassed.

Membership for the Democratic Party is at an all time high - the organization has a naturally fluctuating 90-100 registered voters and supporters. Meanwhile, the same is for the Republican Party - which has approximately 55-65 members. Traditionally, the Democrats have always maintained a large advance in members, due to the more liberal nature of a younger generation of internet users, and this is evident by the approximate thirty extra members in their ranks, as well as the stern majority they maintain in both houses of Congress.

Prior to this, the Republicans had even less members. Arguably, the only reason that the GOP has seen such dramatic growth is due to the vigorous campaigning and advertising launched by former Republican Chairman and Virginian Senator Calvin Wilson, which brought about forty new voters to the Republican side. On February 4th, however, Wilson resigned both offices, leaving Ser Viking (General Secretary of the USSR and East Berlin) to become GOP Chair.

Viking has not always been a particularly loud right-wing acitivist, and now he is the leader of all conservatives in the United States. Speculation indicates that the loss of spearhead politician Calvin Wilson will mark the downfall of the Republican Party, but it may be that Viking will bring new reform to the GOP, especially with a somewhat less controversial background than the former.
