Delaney up a couple of spots. Gillibrand down a couple of spots. Yang up a spot or two(tough one because a lot of his platform is solidly to the left). Sanders up a couple of spots(there is nothing progressive about ignoring racial disparity in your economic platform).

I think you are close.

Harris should be at the top and Yang at the bottom.

Sanders has pretty much run on the same couple of policies he has been for the past few years, but Warren almost seems to put out a new policy each week, many of which go further than anything Sanders has proposed.
