- parasubvert 2y agoThat's if you count the entire coalition and don't take into account likely voters or primary voters. I'm talking about reliable 90%+ will always vote D people and will show up on election day, the mainstays of the party, which is the biggest bloc of the Democratic Party coalition. https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/11/09/the-democratic-coalition/ https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2021/11/09/the-democrat... The largest bloc of the coalition are these mainstays, who tend to be older moderates. And almost half of these people are black. That's what I mean by "base". They lead the way of who the party chooses as a candidate.
