He campaigned as a progressive in the primary, but shifted more toward the center/right after the primary. This actually dampened enthusiasm among Democratic base voters for him (in fact, some progressive YouTube commentators report getting comments from people who lost enthusiasm for him after his rightward pivot). Perhaps if he had maintained a consistent ideology either way from start to finish, he might have gotten both himself and Nelson over the finish line.
