"#RomneyRyan2012" Highest Trending on Twitter; #ObamaBiden2012 Trending Below "#Man City"
Pundit Press ^ | 11/6/12 | Aurelius

Compared to those supporting Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan, few people are talking about Barack Obama and Joe Biden.

The hashtag "#RomneyRyan2012" is getting a tremendous amount of traffic. "#ObamaBiden2012" is getting less traction from, I kid you not, "#Man City."

#RomneyRyan2012 is the second highest trend on twitter today. Number one is "#ivoted." #ObamaBiden2012 does not even crack the top ten.

You can see the top trends right now on Twitter below:

Even the video game Halo 4, which details the epic battle between the character Master Chief and aliens is getting more attention than Obama.

Why is Man City trending higher than Man United?

This isn’t true right now at least, but maybe it was earlier.

#Man City is for Manchester City’s match today with Ajax in the Champions League. It is probably the most watched sporting event worldwide this week.

I actually believe that it is true because the WHOLE day, about every minute 100-200 more posts appear. I do believe twitter holds some trending things down. I am almost positive that they held down #benghazi and #attackwatch.

Because ManCity played today against my team Ajax Amsterdam. 2-2 final.

City and Arsenal had UEFA matches today; United and Chelsa are both on tomorrow.

Ok makes sense, looks like Man City isn’t going to make it out of the Group Stage, in fact, they may finish last, so not even Europa League for them.

I’ve been watching Twitter for about 7 hours and have never seen the word Romney trending at all. I do see #VoteObama at the top of the lis, promoted.
I wonder if trends are diferent in different places, but I just assume Twitter is working for Obama.

Good for Ajax, hope they make it out of the Group Stage, but they still have an uphill climb.
