Traditional politics, like television broadcast networks, do no know how to interpret the social media and include it in terms of ‘ratings’.
The old models are no longer accurate.
Even polster-to-voter polling can be inaccurate. Just ask President Kerry and President Romney.
Add to that Trump-the-non-politician, and they might as well throw up their hands, because it is a whole new ballgame.
Analysts will be analysing the 2016 presidential primaries and election for decades.
And I’m guessing the mainstream media narrative WOULD have been the social media demos would skew younger, and in theory, more Dem.
It shows there is an enthusiasm gap in a BIG way for sure.
