Although the Conservative Party existed in many other states throughout the 1960s, it now operates only in New York State. In New York State's elections, the Conservative Party was ranked fourth place in terms of membership in 2010, behind the Democrats, Republicans, and the Libertarian Party, and ahead of the Greens and Constitution Party. As of November 1, 2011, 147,993 voters, or 1.3% of New York State's total enrollment, were registered with the party.〔()〕 ==History== (詳細はJ. Daniel Mahoney, Kieran O'Doherty, Charles E.

A key consideration was New York's fusion voting, unusual among US states, which allows individual candidates to receive votes from more than one party. The Liberal Party of New York, founded in 1944, had earlier benefitted from this system. The Conservative Party founders wanted to balance the Liberal Party's influence. One early supporter was ''National Review'' founder William F. Buckley, who was the party's candidate for mayor of New York City in 1965. In 1970, his brother James Buckley was elected to the U.S. Senate as a Conservative Party candidate; in 1976, he ran for reelection as a candidate of the Republican and Conservative parties, losing to Daniel Patrick Moynihan. In 1978, registered Conservative William Carney, a member of the Suffolk County legislature, was elected to the United States House of Representatives in New York's 1st congressional district, a long-time Democratic stronghold on Long Island, after winning the Republican primary and running on both party lines.〔Spitzer, Robert, "Third Parties in New York State", in Jeffrey M.
