Last week’s fifth Democrat debate marked an interesting turning point for many 2020 presidential candidates. As various contenders worked to solidify themselves as worthy of the Democrat nomination, some rose and others fell.

2020 Democrat Tulsi Gabbard is one of the left-wing contenders to see a rise in the polls. Gabbard’s rise comes after a back-and-forth with Hillary Clinton last month; Clinton set off a chain of events after branding Gabbard as a “Russian asset.” Since then, Gabbard’s lawyers have demanded Clinton to issue a public retraction of her unfounded statements.

In the midst of all this and more, Gabbard is now polling at 6%, according to findings from a Suffolk University/Boston Globe survey
