2020 only had like a month or so when the progressives totaled more than 50% in polling.

I think we’d better prepare a progressive front runner sooner rather than later. Otherwise we end up like California’s most recent governor primary where the most progressive candidates didn’t really step forward until the last minute, knocked each other out, and now California gets another Newsome-lite type candidate as the front runner against a Republican rather than up against a Progressive.
What happened is largely the fault of the voting system being a jungle primary instead of a more favorable system like a Ranked Robin version of ranked choice voting.
