“What good is a like or a tweet”
ping to ConMan55 ... the originator of the ping/tweet contribution.
Actually, end of quarter reports press releases often include a report of how many individuals donated during the quarter .... so a bunch of $5 contributors is good publicity cuz they just report the $ total and the number. Any House candidate with over 400 donors is impressive. But the Like/Tweet numbers .... it is unclear what the impact is. ConMan??
When you like something or tweet something.. you are publicly showing your support.
I have 900 facebook friends. When I like something.. all 900 see that I have thrown my support to a particular candidate and they also see his or her name.
Same with tweeting.
