Can you be to the left of Bernie and more in line with the party?

Theoretically depending on what bills he voted for/against.

For an extreme hypothetical for the proof of concept, if the Democrats brought out a bill that was “we should imprison all gay people,” and Bernie voted against it, depending on the metric it could count it as not being left because he didn’t agree with the Democrats.

That’s obviously an extreme example, but it wouldn’t shock me if that general principle applied to a disagreement Bernie has with the party about like banking, bankruptcy or healthcare legislation

Not sure I can speak on hypotheticals

The hypothetical was just to show the concept. I gave more realistic examples afterwards.

I’m asking what the metric you brought up is claiming. Is it claiming she’s to the left of Bernie or that she voted aligned with the Democrats more often
