What is a political party?

A group of judges and magistrates
A collection of state representatives
A group of people with shared governance ideas
A legislative committee

The correct answer is: A group of people with shared governance ideas

A political party is a group of people with shared governance ideas. This group aims to represent citizens' interests and gain control of the government by winning elections. Political parties develop policies and run candidates in elections to implement those policies. Judges and magistrates (Option A), state representatives (Option B), and legislative committees (Option D) serve different functions within the government but do not fully encompass the definition of a political party.
