Shouldn't all candidates be independents representing their region, who then vote in the senate etc. and do whatever the f they want?

So then why do we have political parties? Am i naive or missing something?

People like things simple. Nobody is going to listen to “I agree with 90% of what my opponent believes, but here’s the 10% difference that makes me better.”

Basically, everyone is either too busy, too lazy, or too stupid.
