Pros of Having Political Parties: Members of the governmental bodies can more easily predict the outcomes of debates based on the beliefs of the parties Compromises can be made based on more distinct opinions of groups Cons of Having Political Parties: Officials act in order to aid the party, rather than the people It is more difficult for compromises to be made when a legislative body is so divided Not all people agree with every aspect of their political party, and their opinions are not represented in full by the party
