Yeah, Ellison is far left, like Bernie. He's got a network to tap into those folks, as does Bernie. Perez has established contacts and outreach more in the centrist camp, which could help to maintain lifelong Democrats and attract Independents to the party.
They need to increase mid-term voter turn out among all factions of the Democratic and Independent bases, so I think it's a benefit to have a united team working on one message.
Collectively, they need to pull together a cohesive set of goals and a strategy to achieve them soon though, in my opinion. If they can do that, maybe they can turn a large percentage of the first-time protesters into first-time mid-term voters. It could happen.
