By Natan Edelsburg 

Brooklyn-based SocialGuide published their findings on the ten most retweeted comments from last Thursday’s Republican debate. For the debate, they tracked close to 400,000 comments from over 100,000 unique users, making it the second most social program according to their charts. Another interesting piece of data they pulled was the influence of those participating. “The average of 929 followers per unique commenter, the highest of any program that day, and more than 2x the average across from December,” according to SocialGuide. They even calculated that each commenter had an average of 4 comments, “making it the most socially engaged program on Thursday.”

Here are the top ten RTd moments, which they say, “was diverse mix of comments from media outlets, journalists, entertainers and spoof” accounts.
