There's an active campaign on Reddit to distort the results right now. They're far from accurate.

Kamala Harris won. Spamming a poll two weeks after the fact doesn’t make you the victor lol. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2019/2/5/1832393/-Kamala-Harris-wins-Daily-Kos-Straw-Poll-again-as-the-women-crush-their-male-competitors …

He’s going to put out a straw poll every two weeks but the poll from 2/5 is the only straw poll that counts?

That makes a lot of sense.

Every other week we take the pulse of the budding Democratic presidential primary, and see which candidates are leading the pack within our world of party activists, and which are only pretending to compete. For the curious, here’s the previous results.

He's referring to people spam voting the older poll (Which really, REALLY, should have voting disabled on after the official results go out).

I love Bernie and it would be great to see him be President. I just don't know if after the last primary it would be a good idea, and there is his age. I will be loyal and support him but we do have a more diverse pool to choose from this time. It's extremely important that we win. So I have not completely decided on a candidate yet.

Spamming polls accomplishes nothing.

You wrote:

Did I say fundraising was from “Russia”? No, I said nothing of the sort.

Why would you even say that?

What is wrong with you?

Stop putting words in my mouth I didn’t say, it is intellectually dishonest.
