    that is definitely a litmus test for where democratic voters heads are at, but that’s also definitely not control of party.

    see schumer’s mission statement of protecting isreal at all costs to understand where the democratic party leadership’s heads are at despite bernie actually having a say in it.

      Not yet, no. But there haven’t been a ton of races since trump won and it became undeniable that centrist democrats were both unprepared and unwilling to take on this challenge. The more progressives win, the more influence they can exert on the party.
