But it's the same electorate! So it's likely to be the same party?



Often the Party and the electorate have differing goals. As a general rule the Republican Party didn't particularly like Trump, but the Republican electorate adores him.

Biden got an absolute majority of the Democratic primary vote. Sanders got half that, and Yang's share was minuscule.
