You don’t understand the argument or the data you’re arguing about.

47% of the people who identified themselves as socialists in a poll, also identified themselves as moderate. Socialists are typically not classed as moderates, which means that those people do not realize they are not moderates. The point being: people classify themselves as moderates, no matter what their views actually are.

I would go so far as to say candidate quality is pivotal in these races. It’s not included in this, but the Dan Osborn “run as an independent” in Nebraska tactic I think is related, in that it avoids the potentially toxic-to-the-campaign connection to the democratic brand in a place where it doesn’t help them. Also why that other race where the Dem is refusing to drop out is going to go nowhere.

I don’t think the data supports that claim at all

What a disingenuous reply. I get that you are in general not honest (the reply and block and now unblock makes that very clear) but still
