There are no additional factual interpretations to my op. It's straight forward, without deception, and lays out exactly what I stated would be laid out.

Without knowing everyone on DU that has contributed, how can you assign

the position of the candidates ???

You didn't state that you were only referring to online donations.

No big deal.

I have every fact for what I directly said I was presenting.

Some things are simply too obvious. This is one of them. Not sure how there could be any issue. Seems you aren't reading. I find the confusion a bit hard to believe.

One person contributing a dollar a day for 50 days could really skew the contribution number vs, someone who give a single $50 contribution to another candidate.

dollar amounts need to be in a second column.

If someone gives a dollar a day for 90 days, the number of contributions would be 90 and the amount $90.
Another candidate may get $200 one time and the number of contributions would be 1 but the amount $200.
