However I would like to mention that sometimes we do think so, as in "the will of the party", at least in some language's context.
Fun fact, when I tried to find similar sentence like "the will of Democratic/Republican Party", google returns 5 results for the former but followed by voters/members and thus not what I want, for the latter, there is no results at all. But as I find "the will of the party", I find an abstract of some paper from my area.
Maybe party is too small for this. It seems like "the will of the nation" is widely used.
