(no pun intended), AND I say this as someone donating to her AND Tester, but I see these texts a lot. Claiming to have a poll with Tester or Mucarsel-Powell ahead or within one or two points, with no link to a poll (and no poll to be found online).

I find it dishonest for them to do this (unless they're quoting internal polls). I guess if it works to drive money to help, I'm actually good with it (in a weird way), but it feels... icky? Again, I hope BOTH win and I'm happy to pitch in, but I'd love to know what "polls" they're quoting here.
