Bernie Sanders won the debate’s Google fight — in more ways than one

What's particularly interesting, though, is what New Hampshirites want to know more about for each of the candidates. Google has a page dedicated to the debate, on which they list the five trending questions for both Sanders and Hillary Clinton in the state.
The first and fifth questions, like the question about where Clinton is, are for people to go hear from the candidate. "Why Bernie Sanders" is a question about why his candidacy should be considered.
But none of that matters once you get to No. 4. The fourth-most-Googled question about Bernie Sanders is how can I give him money.
Sanders has more than 3 million individual contributions from more than a million donors. He's taken in money at a faster pace than Barack Obama did in 2008 and in January outraised Clinton.
Getting a voter to try and figure out how to give is a dream come true for any campaign. Having it trend on Google? Insane.
