Indeed… Newsweek asks, “[Why is Tulsi Gabbard still in the race after better-polling candidates dropped out?](https://www.newsweek.com/why-tulsi-gabbard-still-2020-presidential-race-after-better-polling-democrats-dropped-out-1490135)” They didn’t actually find an answer to the question, but they’re asking the right question. Something about her is just… _off_.

I don’t know why they made the threshold so high. They could have kept it a lot lower and Gabbard still would not have qualified.
