Social Media and Politics
The data and trends that we are collecting are meant to reflect how political campaigns, political parties, activist groups, and others use social media for politics.
There are many examples of grassroots organizations and others using social media to build their cause, as well as political campaigns and other types of organizations who use social media to share their message. What's more, people in every day life use social media to share their political opinions, as well as engage in debate.
Our goal with this page and our data and research is to better understand what is happening, identify trends, and highlight examples of good (effective) and bad (ineffective) social media use.
