Notes
- ^ The definition of "membership" varies widely from nation to nation, which has a significant bearing on the numbers and percentages listed on this page. For example, United Kingdom memberships are limited to paid-up subscribers to each party. By this description the three dominant parties – Conservative, Labour and Reform UK – in total have less than 700,000 members, and are less than one per cent of the UK population. At an opposite extreme, United States memberships can include all registered voters who have self-identified their party preference, and who may number in the tens of millions, making their percentages of US population comparatively large.
- ^ a b c d e Based on the claimed number of members and the population statistics of the country during the given year.
- ^ a b c d e Only includes voters registered as party affiliates in the District of Columbia and the 32 states which allow voter registration with a specific party; in the United States, it is this voter registration which determines eligibility to vote in the party's internal elections such as primaries, rather than the party's dues-paying membership as in the rest of the world. Jurisdictions include Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Utah, West Virginia and Wyoming. The overall numbers in the remaining states lean heavily Republican so the total percentage of the population that's Democrat or Republican is much closer than these values depict.
