Best Answer

A political party is an organization that is devoted to some political objective or objectives which reflect some political philosophy. That philosophy often can be described either as conservative or liberal, although those are not the only possibilities. A party can participate in elections, and if it gets enough support from voters, can be represented in Congress by its candidates who win elections, and become either Representatives or Senators, depending upon which house of Congress they are in.
