Which representatives became non-attached and later joined other parties?

Moonshot's Answer

The search results provide insights into the phenomenon of representatives becoming non-attached and later joining other parties. In the European Parliament, non-attached members, also known as NI for "non-inscrits," currently number 46 who have chosen not to join a political group [1]. Historically, in the 2010 House of Representatives elections, seven independents were elected, with the majority joining a political party post-elections [2]. Non-attached members in the European Parliament may later join one of the recognized political groups [3]. The potential for non-affiliated members to tip the political balance in the EU Parliament has been noted, especially if they join right-wing factions [4]. The rules governing the status and rights of non-attached members in the European Parliament are outlined, indicating they have a less favorable status compared to attached members [5]. The broader political landscape suggests a possible shift to the right in the European Parliament after upcoming elections [6]. The implications for centrist parties of a right-wing coalition are discussed, indicating the complexity of party alliances [7]. The historical development of party whips in the U.S. Senate provides a backdrop to understanding party dynamics [8]. Lastly, the role of electors in the Electoral College process, though not directly related, underscores the interconnectedness of political representation and party affiliation [9]. While specific names of representatives who became non-attached and later joined other parties are not provided in these results, the information gives a general overview of the political landscape concerning non-attached members and party affiliations.
