Everything about Independent politician
Individual not affiliated to any political party
An independent or non-affiliated politician is a politician not formally affiliated with any political party. In accordance with the applicable electoral law which regulates electoral process in a representative democracy, such non-affiliated politicians are not nominated by political parties, but most commonly by a qualified number of citizens, thus becoming independent candidates, or civic candidates. As in the case of party-candidates, an independent electoral candidacy can be individual, or collective. Wikipedia →
