The U.S. tends to support a two-party system but some people don't like it. In Washington state people were upset this fall in the primary when they had to declare a preference for one party and vote only between candidates competing for the party's position. For instance, if you declared you were a Democrat you had to select a candidate who was running as a Democrat for Governor. You couldn't vote for a Republican. A lot of people were upset that they couldn't cross over and vote for a candidate in another party.
