I think a potential mistake here is in assuming everyone who votes for a party gets a say in where it goes. Some people are just along for the ride. A powerful, active core is more important is determining direction than the passive, disengaged mass
NYT has a nice piece on the severe vocal minority problems that the US Democrat Party suffers from. Essentially, NYT is pushing back a little bit against the activists by pointing out their lack of democratic behavior, unrepresentiveness, elitism. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/04/08/upshot/democratic-electorate-twitter-real-life.html …pic.twitter.com/KzwF4CGx0B

The same is true for the electorate as a whole. Most people have preferences but are politically inert until pushed in one direction or another. Just my 2 cents anyway
