We differ on a salient point I think. You view progressives as radicals.
I don't think what the progressive wing of the party are asking for is radical. Neither does the article I posted.

I need to get better at reading usernames
Oh, no. I was referencing the Overton window in general. Not voter turnout as a function of conservatism vs liberalism vs progressivism.
Here's a quick article that will give some jumping off points for further research.

Low voter turnout is a voter access and apathy issue. Disenfranchised voters tend to not vote and that's a platform and outreach issue for the DNC. Low voter access is shit that elected dems should put first and foremost in their agenda once elected, but only Abrams and Sanders have talked about election reform since Carter was president.
They didn't do much to stop it
And what have they done to stop it?
There's a theory called the Overton Window and Dems moving to the center has shifted this whole country to the right. We lost abortion rights because of it and our election integrity and voter access is at risk because of it.
If you want to look at a winning strategy that directly refutes your point look at FDR.

Don't use biometrics and if you do, power off your phone before it's siezed.
