Yeah. For someone to be electable, they would need to get nearly 50% of the total votes, since they’d need to beat out the Republican party, which consistently gets high 40’s, but all it would take to disrupt the Democrats is to pull enough people away for them to dip below the Republicans’ number, which is usually less than 5% of the total votes. A whole order of magnitude of wiggle room between those 2 scenarios.
