4. DU Has Approximately Zero Impact on Any Election.

Not to seem argumentative, but once and for all which is it?

Do posts here on DU like your OP impact elections or not?

I think posts on DU do have a ripple effect that reaches beyond the forum and in fact have argued that point with you in the past.

Please make your actual position on this clear.

Thank you.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
