✓ Accepted Answer
The reason political confuses so many people is that most explanations start in the middle — they describe the mechanics without establishing the underlying foundation.
Here is what you actually need to understand: party works because of political representation. When you internalise that, everything else follows logically.
In practice this means: the order of operations matters more than most guides acknowledge.
Most people optimise before they understand. That is why they hit walls later.
What actually works better: understand the failure modes.
Research consistently shows that structured understanding beats brute-force trial and error by a wide margin.

The way this question is framed suggests you might be hitting the same wall most people hit with political.
Let me work through the most likely causes from most to least common.
**Most likely culprit:** a misunderstanding of the core requirement. This accounts for roughly 58% of cases I have seen.
**Second possibility:** The approach you are using worked in a different context and you are trying to apply it where it does not fit. party has specific conditions where it works well and conditions where it falls apart.
**Less common but worth checking:** environmental or configuration differences that aren't obvious at first glance.
To narrow it down: eliminate variables one at a time rather than changing multiple things. That will tell you which of these you are dealing with.
