A look at #GASen shows a disappearing cluster of GOP accounts, just as in #GA07. Dem networks (#demcast) are strong here. Evidence of bot activity supporting GOP incumbent @Perduesenate seems ... not well hidden.

@jbirch_12 Thanks, Joyce!

#ga07 has seen avalanches of Twitter traffic from far-flung Dem activist networks (#wtpHouse, #wtpBlue, etc). Reps have been all-in here too -- until the last week, when GOP traffic has dried up. What happened?

@lovemoz1wtp Hi -- That probably isn't clear enough, thanks for the question! It's all content that refers to the specific House/Senate races (at least that Twitter provides in its free feed). I'll tweak the language to make that clearer.

A striking comment in a democratic society. We want trains to run on time, too (or would if we had them). But it seems history has shown us what happens when we get those priorities wrong.

[Mike Lee @SenMikeLee]

Democracy isn’t the objective; liberty, peace, and prospefity are. We want the human condition to flourish. Rank democracy can thwart that.

Political ironies: #DefundThePolice is today's top (House/Senate) election-Twitter hashtag, as seen on https://t.co/AOWcUFVDuz. But it's all Republicans, playing fast and loose with the facts in #PA17 and #WA08.

2020 really is a disaster movie. Whoever's scripting this: Please, we the cast beg of you, one is enough, don't make this a franchise.
