What influence did the Populist party have on American politics?
Can you tell me about the Populist party and their influence on American politics?
The Populist Party was a political party in the United States in the late 19th century. They were also known as the People's Party and their main issues were related to the agrarianism and the rights of agricultural workers. The Populist Party was formed in 1892 and gained a significant following among farmers, especially in the Midwest and South. They had some electoral successes, but ultimately the party's influence on American politics was limited.
