It depends what you mean by "work". While he certainly didn't see it as sufficient, Marx wasn't categorically against involvement in electoral politics, so he must've seen some "work" in it.
Participation in the electoral pulpit as a platform for agitation is a larger topic, but Marx advocated for the revolutionary overthrow of bourgeios republics his entire adult life.
I agree. That's a different position though than "never do electorlaism"
