    And very secretive it appears:

    WFP employs a ranked-choice voting system for endorsements, meaning people rank their preferences from first to last. Vote share is divided 50-50 between WFP's national committee and WFP members and grassroots supporters. The party doesn’t release separate tallies, meaning we don't know if there's a big schism between WFP’s leaders' preference and its membership base.

    Looks like they have a DNC problem.

    She's got a record on housing, fighting the big banks, creating the CFPB, having accountability, having people actually attack her for her leadership in that...

    Wait, she's successful because people "attack" her? And the banks? What has she done to the banks? All the same fraudulent banks that caused the recession are running just as smoothly as ever. CFPB? Toothless! You gotta elect a congress to back it up, otherwise all her talk is just hot air, which is usually the intent with their "Rotating Villain" game.

    Time to vote all these people out. Or you will trudge through this same old bullshit for an indefinite time.
