Not really no. Last election they didn’t happen, the election before that they didn’t really happen as popular candidates for totally no reason whatsoever dropped out and endorsed Biden until he became the only one you were allowed to vote for, the election before that DNC super-delegates removed all choice in the primary, the election before that didn’t have a primary.
It’s been two decades since the democratic party has had a fair primary process. The median voter wasn’t allowed to vote last time anyone had any hope of a choice in who the democratic presidential candidate was.
