independent

Registered voters who do not declare a particular party affiliation are grouped together under the term "independent".

Because most voters registered for a particular party will vote for that party's candidate, general election campaigns have tended to focus on winning over these groups.

Nationwide, about a third of all voters consider themselves independent, however some key states have a higher proportion of independent voters than others.
