The Democrats can reform their primary process any way they want any time they want. They are a private organization.
And they are. In Kansas and Hawaii since 2020 they've used RCV for DNC Primaries. Maine, a blue state, also practices RCV for the general election.
On the other hand, many Republicans have directly opposed RCV.
And the majority of these reforms are brought about by Petition, including the ballot measures.
They are, but not nearly enough. The entire primary system is setup to be easily manipulated by the party leadership and their puppets on cable news.
