Other notes[]
In Minnesota, "Democratic-Farmer-Labor" is not a third party, but the Minnesota equivalent of the Democratic Party. In Minnesota, "Independent-Republican" was once used for the Minnesota equivalent of the Republican Party (see Republican Party of Minnesota).
In North Dakota, "Democratic-NPL" is not a third party, but the North Dakota equivalent of the Democratic Party. The full name for the party is the North Dakota Democratic-Nonpartisan League Party.
Third parties are linked only if they refer to specific third parties, and not just "independent" in general.
Puerto Rico operates under a different party system than the rest of the United States; however politicians of either party may affiliate also with the national Democratic or Republican parties.
