Seems like the lesson to be learned is "if a lot of potential voters are saying your position is shit you should reevaluate to not alienate then"

That's a good lesson for the Dem politicians. The lesson for left leaning voters is "don't stay home when democracy itself is on the line... vote for the Democrats."

If you convince the one politician to learn the lesson you don't need to convince the thousands of voters you need. Seems easier to convince the one politician to not be shitty.

If a politician knows people are being told to vote no matter what they have no incentive to change so they aren't going to. The politicians need to not be shitty and earn the vote
