Given the transition from traditional mainstream media to social media, words from those in states that "do not matter" can still very much impact the actions of those in states that do.

And my post was from genuine curiosity since I could not follow your logic. So, I take it you are upset with Porter because you think her not withdrawing from the race is going to take away votes from Steyer, thius making it likely Becerra wins?
