Editing to link to an Aug. 9 Open Secrets article on Steyer spending $7 million for ads his first month:

https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2019/08/tom-steyer-spends-more-than-7million-on-ads/


n the month since Tom Steyer jumped into the Democratic presidential field with a promise to spend $100 million on his own campaign, the billionaire activist and former hedge fund manager has made his name known across early primary states with millions in ad buys.

But it remains to be seen whether Steyer, a major Democratic donor who made headlines in recent years for his calls to impeach President Donald Trump, can convert name recognition into a spot on the Democratic debate stage in September and a viable campaign in the long run.

The Steyer campaign has spent more than $7 million on TV and digital ads during its first month, according to data provided by social media companies and an analysis of Federal Communications Commission filings available in the OpenSecrets political ad database.

OpenSecrets identified more than $3.7 million in TV ad buys on more than 12,000 spots across the first four primary states — Iowa, New Hampshire, Nevada and South Carolina. Steyer began running ads on July 10, the day after his campaign launched.

Consistently in other polls he’s fine.

But then some guy said it too early

But the other guy says no it’s not..

And ya wonder why some folks stay out of the primary discussions.

Tell ya what tho... Joe Biden remains the most qualified nationally and globally.
That’s a fact to me!!!

South Biden at this point in time seems to be doing quite well there, way beyond the 15% threshold, and appears to be poised to get the most delegates there, while in the other states, the delegates appear to be split between the top three tier candidates, along with the fact that there are still a significant number of undecided Democrats

I really doubt the top 3 candidates all lost at least several points of support. Change Research tends to come up with some pretty odd results.

The same pollster did three monthly polls in a row in Iowa last summer and came up with Biden, then Buttigieg, then Warren in the lead.
