MODERATORS
Same. I voted 3rd party last presidential election cycle and it was cool because according to partisans (and their "support my team or you love Satan",) this means I also got to vote for Hillary and Trump at the same time! Separate people assured me of this several times, so it must be true. Isn't democracy great?
In all seriousness, I'd like to see a moderate party run a candidate. "~~No Labels~~" Forward (the party that's totally-not-a-party, founded by Andrew Yang) seems promising.
You mean the forward party? "No Labels" is something different.
Edit: No Labels do market themselves as "moderate" though. But from what I've seen, it's more of a "corporations' dystopian version of bipartisanship" moderate rather than "roughly middle-ground views of average Americans" moderate.
shit, you're right. I had the two confused.
