8. Those are the same numbers we've had -- no more votes have been added yet, they just rounded numbers up and down

However, get this:

Hilton is at 27.6, but they made him 28% in most Media

Becerra is at 25.6, but most media has him at 25%.

Yet the media rounds Hilton up and Becerra down, making it seem like Hilton is "up" 3%.

Steyer is at 19.8.
