Elections for governments are fought on whatever policies a political party tells the constituents it needs. The policies are skewed to suit the needs of closely disputed seats.
Firstly, this method is dishonest to the populace in being skewed and the political party is telling its constituents what they need, not the constituents telling the party, through their representative, what they need. This is flawed democracy, indeed it is questionable as to whether it is democracy.
Elections should be conducted by choosing people to represent their constituents who have good values and who will then listen to the constituents in setting policy, policy that needs to change with the needs of society.
Generally speaking, parties work for the parties, independents work for their constituents.
Choose the person, not the party.
