They sometimes gain enough votes to cause a major party to lose
(Reasoning that might help you) There are usually only two major parties that have the most power in United States politics ,even though those parties have changed over time .Third party candidates ,how ever are still are still able to influence elections.A third party can gain votes from people who would have other wise voted for one of the major parties, and enough of these votes can cause the major party to lose .One of the most famous times this occurred was in the 1912 presidential election,When Theodore Roosevelt's Bull Moose party signed voters who would have supported the Republican William Taft . The Republican votes was split between Roosevelt Taft,so the democrat Woodrow Wilson won the election.
Communication was very important because back than they didn't have phones and T.V.s so they had to let people know of the danger soon
