For this to be malicious, it would be an incredibly risky decision by Google from a simple risk/reward standpoint. Gabbard is a huge long shot to win the Democratic nomination let alone the presidency. Putting their finger on the scale at this point in the election cycle to slightly disadvantage a candidate that in all likelihood won't matter is a huge gamble.

- mistermann 7y agoBernie Sanders had pretty massive grassroots and online support far before the mainstream media seemed to even notice he existed. To me, fingers on scales seems like just the way it's done nowadays.
