    If everyone voted for them they would have a mandate to move further left.

    I don’t understand this logic. If they get elected by doing the same thing as always, doesn’t that just encourage them to continue on that trajectory?

      No.

      The more people vote left, the further left the republican policies need to be to stand any chance of being elected.

      Dems will always be to the left of republicans in order to differentiate themselves.

      The whole country moves left when everyone votes left. It’s not very complicated.
