As the polls closed in New Hampshire and results started coming in, entrepreneur Andrew Yang announced his decision to suspend his presidential campaign. It became apparent that he couldn't go on to win the Democratic nomination.
Even though he's no longer in the race, Yang supporters throughout the country still plan to vote for him, as evidenced by the #StillVotingForYang hashtag on Twitter.
I'm still going to Yang people as if @AndrewYang was still running.. y?

What's even more amazing: a new poll from the Las Vegas-Review Journal shows Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is tied for third place with those supporting other candidates/undecided. Yang supporters believe he could surge.
Could @AndrewYang end up tied for 3rd in Nevada on Feb 22 despite having suspended his campaign?#StillVotingYang #YangGang pic.twitter.com/FQLkVPuwrO

It seems as though his supporters have an Idea: go for a brokered convention.
I've made my decision. I am still voting for @AndrewYang in CA. Pass it on.

- More leverage for the brokered convention
- Better start for #Yang2024#YangGang #Yang2020 #HumanityFirst #YangGangLove
It looks as though Nevada, South Carolina and Super Tuesday are going to be rather interesting.
