@jbview @jonmladd @mattyglesias FWIW, I've done a decent bit of work on this lately, and fundraising does have a bit of predictive power in forecasting movement in national polls. Not as much as endorsements but some. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias I mostly agree with the broader point. But I think people are looking at the fundraising numbers the wrong way. The story they tell is really one of divided support. Buttigieg has raised only 15% of the total individual contributions this cycle. And Bernie (the leader) only 18%. — PolitiTweet.org

@jbview @jonmladd @mattyglesias Total $ in individual contributions seems to be the best metric. There doesn't appear to be anything particularly special about either small donors or big donors in predicting poll movement. Our data isn't great on self-raised $ but it doesn't *appear* to have the same impact. — PolitiTweet.org
