Democratic candidate Andrew Yang was directly asked 2 questions in 2 hours during June 28th’s Democratic Debate on NBC News. And according to Tic Toc by Bloomberg, Yang only spoke for a combined 2 minutes and 58 seconds the entire night.

But, the views on his video clips on YouTube from the night far exceeds all the other candidates.

While scrolling through YouTube this morning, I came across a 2-minute clip of Yang that CNBC Television’s YouTube channel posted:

In it, Yang is given the opportunity to explain his signature campaign policy, a form of universal basic income, The Freedom Dividend. Earlier today when I watched the clip, it had 127,000 views. Since then the view count has risen to over 135,000 views.

I was honestly surprised that Yang received so many views. Although I consider him to be my favorite to win, I didn’t think he had mass appeal just yet. So I decided to see how many views the other candidates received on their clips from the night.

What I discovered shocked me.
