A '''party platform''' is a list of beliefs and ideas which a party promises to work towards and accomplish if elected. The platform positions generally reflect the political leanings of the parties base. For example, [[Republicans]] generally run with a low tax platform; whereas [[Democrat]]s generally run on a platform calling for increased taxes to pay for social programs.
