Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders (at the time) and Donald Trump posted to Facebook and Twitter at roughly the same rate from May 1 through June 15, but Trump’s posts drew the most responses.
Pew Research Center analyzed the candidates’ official websites and Facebook and Twitter accounts from May 1 through June 15 in two separate studies, and it found that while Clinton, Sanders and Trump held steady at roughly five to seven Facebook posts and 11 to 12 tweets per day, Trump drew much greater response, with Pew nothing that Trump’s tweets were retweeted an average of 6,000 times, compared with nearly 2,500 for Sanders and more than 1,500 for Clinton.
