Dealignment
This is commonly referred to as dealignment, where individuals are less attached to political parties and may not consistently identify with or support a particular party.
There are various characteristics of party de-alignment. They include breaking of ties between the parties involved, the electorate will abandon the affiliation with the other party and so much more.
