    But I don’t think after a Harris win we are going to magically have RCV

    I never claimed electing Harris will get us RCV. I’ve said pretty consistently that the presidential election is in no way connected to us getting RCV. We will only get RCV from a bottom-up effort to shift individual state legislatures.

        The Tea Party successfully shifted the Republican party farther right by running and winning in their primaries. Why is it inconceivable that progressives can do the same in the Democratic primaries?

            Because there haven’t been primary candidates winning their primaries on that issue. They won’t do it as a party.
