The Anti-Masonic Party, also known as the Anti-Masonic Movement, was the first third party in the United States.[4] It strongly opposed Freemasonry as a single-issue party and later aspired to become a major party by expanding its platform to take positions on other issues. After emerging as a political force in the late 1820s, most of the Anti-Masonic Party's members joined the Whig Party in the 1830s and the party disappeared after 1838. [Wikipedia]
