Georgia State professor analyzes the strategies of three third-party groups in 2024 election

Tammy Greer, a politics and policy clinical assistant professor at Georgia State University, says though independent and third-party groups allow different kinds of voices into political discussions, the challenge they face is building a majority to make progress on their priorities.

She says some of the pushback that some of the parties have are against the federal government, but the issues the parties are advocating for are functions of the state.

For this week’s series on “Closer Look” focusing on the work of independent and third-party groups amid the 2024 presidential election cycle, show host Rose Scott talked with members of the Party for Socialism and Liberation, the Green Party and the Working Families Party.
