    I think I can sort of meet you half way. I don’t think the numbers detract a whole lot from my original point. Sure, many lefties vote, but if a significant portion of the Democratic electorate does not participate, that’s already incapacitating it to a degree. Imagine what we could accomplish if we had supermajority in both houses and didn’t have to cater to moderate Dems like Sinema or Manchin? Imagine if we could primary actual progressive candidates and young people showed up to the ballot. Instead we are left with an insular slim majority in only one of the houses.
