Not sure I’m convinced. I vote for my local MP, and if my MP suddenly said “nah, someone else can do the job,” while the federal party shifts someone into the position that has no intention of meeting with citizens and representing me as my local MP, I’d be pretty offended. Particularly so if it was something I identified with and thought of as “my party.”

That makes you a “high information voter” which is rare.
