The following interactive charts help explore US House member tweets about Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign. When you interact with one of the charts to filter for a certain tweet property, all other charts will update as well. For example, clicking on 'Republican' will filter for tweets made by Republican representatives, with the adjacent chart reflecting how many of their tweets mention Clinton, Obama, and Trump. Note that raw tweets are also shown in the table below the charts. What is clear is that congress members have tweeted much more about the opposing party's nominee than their own, and that tweets about the opposing candidate are also typically more popular on Twitter.
