What is a political party?

  1. A social event hosted by a political figure

  2. A group organized to support a particular set of policies

  3. A group of individuals with common interests organizing to win elections and determine public policy

  4. A legislative approach to solving public issues

The correct answer is: A group of individuals with common interests organizing to win elections and determine public policy

A is incorrect because a political party is not simply a social event, but rather a formal group with a specific purpose. B is incorrect because it is missing the aspect of organizing to win elections and determining public policy. D is incorrect because it does not fully encompass the role of a political party, which also involves representing the interests of its members and promoting their beliefs and values.
