1. What's up with 27% of Yang supporters?

[Sherman A1]

2. Well,

considering that some of those folks in the 27% are likely independents or republicans which he has attracted I don't see a real problem here, but rather a made up issue looking for some false outrage.

[Sherman A1]

9. Do you have proof it is not?

As he is younger and tech savvy, he appeals to a younger group and it has been mentioned on a video that he is pulling folks from the likely republican voter pool. I suspect it to be the case as he is not about left or right politics but solving the problems we have now and those coming down the road at breakneck speed.

[Sherman A1]

17. So you have nothing

as suspected.

4. Exactly. I'm getting a little sick of these games honestly. nt

6. Wow you've almost been here a whole 24 hours.

11. This should quench your thirst for more Yang republican RWNJ's phishing

As a result, many of Mr. Yang’s fans — Republican and Democrat alike — have begun to fashion an electability argument around their still-somewhat fringe candidate, and view him as the person best equipped to both beat Mr. Trump and unite the country.

12. You could find out and let us know...

Or just keep using the question as a deflection.

Your choice.

"Thanks"

7. So 27% will choose Trump or "it depends".

Interesting.

8. part of the problem is supporters of other candidates...

spread disgust towards other candidates those who don't support their candidate. It really is off putting. This is especially true of Bernie sanders. We really should respect peoples choice and not tell them they are stupid for supporting their candidate. You know we will need everyone's votes. Please don't alienate people for supporting candidates you don't like!

16. I don't see this as necessarily indicative of a problem with Yang.

One could also argue he has appeal that crosses party lines.
