Eek, you're right. . however, if you look at the story underneath it, 'How the biohazard symbol was designed', it has 1127 diggs which is also larger than the 965-digged bottom story in 'top of all topics'.

The 'Somebody out there would still this' is also popular enough to be included, but isn't.

So your article is not the only one, must be the algorithm perhaps?

Yeah but that is an older article.

All the articles you see in the capture were on the front page and are gradually moving down in the same order by which they became popular.

It makes no sense that the Mike Gravel one made it and mine didn't.

They are f*cking around with it.

Ron Paul Grassroots Central

I'm trying to get us more votes with the Obama-obsessed crowd on digg.

A number of people in the comments have said they are changing their vote.

So i'd say it's related to grassroots.

Watch the grassroots training videos. All that matters is turning out votes, not obsessing about other campaigns, democrats no less.

This disinfo does little to help, and it bumps down the true grassroots threads like the Call4Paul Super Tuesday drive.

There is a forum for other politics, and this DIGG spam belongs there.

Your attitude to ridicule people for trying to get votes, does little to help.

Our biggest bank of possible new voters is the Obama people. If they discover that Obama is a shill they will change and bring all their teeny bopper friends with them. I can't canvass because I'm not in the US.

I REPEAT: PEOPLE SAID THEY ARE CHANGING THEIR VOTE = RELEVANT TO GRASSROOTS.
