enter/take part in elections for office
Members of the OMRLP do enter elections for office, but they don't usually expect to win.
Hi,
Does "enter" in the above equal 'take part in?" If not, what does it mean exactly? Thanks.

In the USA, we have a few odd ball political parties too. Like the green party, objectivist party, prohibition party, boston tea party, and the libertarian party. These parties all nominated candidates for the 2008 presidential election. The Green party candidate got 0.5% of the votes. The libertarian candidate got 0.4%.
There were two states where one of these candidates running or not may

Enter elections = run candidates, like Obama for the Democrats and McCain for the Republicans
Take part in = run candidates (as with 'enter') or maybe just campaign for someone else's candidate or hold rallies, etc.
