In the capitol town (Olympia is not a city) of my reliably blue state, Democrats can't get more than about 16% of eligible voters to participate in our easy-peasy vote-by-mail local primaries in order to get the progressives the party endorses on the ticket for the general! A friend and I were writing postcards to pat GA voters on the back for voting in 2020, and she commented that we needed to start sending postcards to our local progressive voters to get them to do something to oust the Business Democrats who run our town and make sure their development cronies get all the goodies the town has to give away. (We hear a lot from HCR about the Business Republicans, but not much about their Democratic counterparts.)
