Reading reaction info

I am attempting to take an array of reactions on a given message and identify the individual users that have posted each reaction. I have run into an issue where I can only reliably console.log the bot's user ID, and the list does not contain the rest of the user IDs unless the command is run immediately following a reaction state change (someone adds one). The other issue I'm running into is that I can console.log the information, but I can't seem to access it programmatically. This line of code is turning the reaction.users circular collection into something I can read in the console.

reactions.forEach(reaction => { if (reaction.count>1) { console.log(JSON.stringify(reaction.users,null,2)); } });

reactions.forEach(reaction => { if (reaction.count>1) { console.log(JSON.stringify(reaction.users,null,2)); } });

Before that line is stringifying the array, this block is trying to read each element of the reactions.users array and console log it:

let userIds= [];
        for (const user in reactions.users) {
            userIds.push(user);
        }
        console.log(`Ids: ${userIds}`);

let userIds= [];
        for (const user in reactions.users) {
            userIds.push(user);
        }
        console.log(`Ids: ${userIds}`);

This is not working. The console log is returning a list of userIDs in the stringified log, but returning Id: for the block that is trying to get the user IDs. I am not sure what to do or try next, as I've already dug through youtube, guides, and chatGPT

Issue reading list of users who have reacted to a message

Afternoon, I'm creating a voting system in one of my servers that has users choose one of eight options. I am currently attempting to get the bot to reliably read the list of users that have reacted to each reaction, while also ignoring its own reactions. Related code

if (victors.length===1) {
            thmb = highestCountReactions.map((info) => raidMasterList.find((raid) => raid.emj===info.name)?.icon || info.name);
            title = `Raid Vote: ${victors}`;
            desc = `${victors} wins with ${highestCountReactions[0].count} votes!`;
        } else if (victors.length>1) {
            title = `Raid Vote: TIE!`;
            desc = `__Raid vote ended in a tie__\n\`-\` ${victors.join('\n\`-\` ')}`
        }

        const eRaidVote = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setTitle(`${title}`)
            .setDescription(`${desc}`)
            .setColor(0x00ff00)
            .setThumbnail(`${thmb}`)

        reactions.forEach(reaction => { if (reaction.count>1) { console.log(JSON.stringify(reaction.users,null,2)); } })
        //trgtMsg.reactions.removeAll();
        await interaction.reply({embeds: [eRaidVote]});

if (victors.length===1) {
            thmb = highestCountReactions.map((info) => raidMasterList.find((raid) => raid.emj===info.name)?.icon || info.name);
            title = `Raid Vote: ${victors}`;
            desc = `${victors} wins with ${highestCountReactions[0].count} votes!`;
        } else if (victors.length>1) {
            title = `Raid Vote: TIE!`;
            desc = `__Raid vote ended in a tie__\n\`-\` ${victors.join('\n\`-\` ')}`
        }

        const eRaidVote = new EmbedBuilder()
            .setTitle(`${title}`)
            .setDescription(`${desc}`)
            .setColor(0x00ff00)
            .setThumbnail(`${thmb}`)

        reactions.forEach(reaction => { if (reaction.count>1) { console.log(JSON.stringify(reaction.users,null,2)); } })
        //trgtMsg.reactions.removeAll();
        await interaction.reply({embeds: [eRaidVote]});

The line in particular is the third from bottom, which is supposed to take all reactions that are greater than 1 (in order to ignore the bot's) and list the users associated with them. When I do let it include itself, it lists the bot's user ID correctly, but it otherwise returns this:

{
  "reaction": {
    "messageId": "1210638706126626936",
    "me": false,
    "users": [],
    "count": 2,
    "emojiId": "1090404643953201234"
  }

{
  "reaction": {
    "messageId": "1210638706126626936",
    "me": false,
    "users": [],
    "count": 2,
    "emojiId": "1090404643953201234"
  }

I have tried looking up reaction guides on youtube, documentation, and bickering with chatGPT, to no avail. I have all intents enabled so it's not an intent issue
