Election polls in Kansas are open for another 20 minutes. As you can see here, there are still no ballots that have been counted yet. https://t.co/6E999WRv87

Election officials have looked to bolster security at major vote tabulation sites across the country after chaos at them in 2020 largely caught officials flat-footed.

Voting machines have been malfunctioning today, resulting in the rejection of ballots and delays in efficiency at the polls. This is happening most notably in Arizona but has also been reported in a small number of other locations. #MC576#MC576
As of right now, the first ballot has yet to be counted which means no votes have been recorded. This can be frustrating, but patience is key especially now with so many mail-in ballots and the precision with which each ballot is being counted. #MC576#ElectionDay#Election2022
@JohnnaTumberger @politico I agree! I think having that power on social media connects with younger voters more than people might anticipate. It’ll be interesting to see how things turn out.
Election Day is here! Ensure your voice is heard by filling out your ballot today. It’s important to remember that not all ballots will be counted by the end of the day in certain states. For more information, check out this article from Politico.

It will be interesting to see how votes in today's election compare to this prediction by All Sides. These predictions aren't always accurate due to research flaws so I'm curious to see how accurate it is when election results roll in. #MC576

@JohnnaTumberger Fascinating find! This is an interesting read because it covers both the race and the campaign spending from each side. This is very applicable with course content this week.
@emilylang0 Great find! I enjoyed reading this study and about the relationship between social media and elections. I agree that social media use by politicians will probably rise in the next election cycle.
This is an article by PBS News that shows viewers the conversation of an interview held about campaign spending in the 2022 election. It's an interesting read and reflects what we talked about in class regarding the money going into campaigns.

@emilylang0 Seeing the statistic that shows that the majority of Americans think social media is detrimental to our society is certainly an eye-opener. This is something I believe should be talked about more often.
@w_mary08 This is an interesting article - good find! It's fascinating seeing the breakdown of their research methods and how easily misinformation spreads.
This first article explains in laymen's terms how social media impacts public opinion because it has global reach and political influence. The second article performs an in-depth analysis of how this happens.

This article does an excellent job explaining the process and effects of media framing. It focuses on the dramatic words the media tends to use and investigates whether words like "terrorism" are sometimes used inappropriately by the media. #MC576 https://t.co/ihT7nTFa3Q
@sydneyksu101 This is an interesting article and a prime example of framing in the media. Great choice! I like how you spotted the framing and brought it to light.
@SadieStock10 Great choice of articles! It is interesting to see how different news outlets cover the same story and how the framing of each effects a viewer's perception of the issue.
