I don’t care what polls say when I am literally seeing it happen in my state. In 2022 the Democratic choice for governor (or maybe some other government position) outwardly ran as “I was conservative, but the party went too far so now I’m running as a Democrat”. It was in all of his campaign ads. He lost BADLY.
Are you saying that a progressive can’t win in a purple state but can in a red state? Are you saying that a progressive can win in Texas but not Arizona?
I’m saying someone who isn’t openly a conservative running on the Democratic ticket has a better chance in a red state, but Dems don’t care what happens in red states. It’s why their presidential candidates never come here or campaign on things that help us.

It’s not just polls. Ruben Gallego ran as a centrist in purple Arizona and won. Kamal Harris lost Arizona.
You’re using a purple state when I stated I’m talking about a red state…

Andy Beshear, the Democratic governor of red Kentucky is a moderate. He is considered a possible Democratic candidate for President.
