It’s another hit piece. Trump has them scared and I, for one, am enjoying watching “them” squirm.

Exactly. Insult to our intelligence, if you ask me. Perhaps they think most of Trump's voters are from Broward County.

Well when you have 3.5 million followers and weren’t a politician until 3 months ago. Duh!

The rest are all political Twitter accounts set up specifically for their campaign. So of course they are mostly voters.

Trump’s is his personal account.

The media is desperate to find a higher meaning in Twitter. It’s a spiritual quest for them.

More than 19.5 million of his 36.9 million Twitter followers are accounts that don't correspond to real people. - Daily Mail

There absolutely no way they can determine a person’s eligibility to vote let alone the person’s real name

That was my question. Are they checking everyone's names against voter rolls?! If they have time for that, how about checking other things like the names of people who register to vote under the Motor Voter law against a list of who are U.S.Citizens?

It’ll be a nice day when people wake up and realize their ‘conservative’ media heroes are once again intentionally leading the herd to the slaughterhouse.

I doubt I’ll live long enough to see that sudden outbreak of sanity.

Love it! That's about how desperate they are getting.

HOT AIR. 86.537% of all statistics are made up on the spot and the rest are just fabricated lies.

And 49.3728623% of that 86.537% are purely or mostly purely unadulterated indications of things that could, or could not, be true..

Another gope shill calls it in.

For the sake of argument, let’s say that this analysis is completely correct. So what? It’s more than 6 months until the first primary. Plenty of time to register to vote. If DT has the sort of draw that we seem to think he does, then how difficult is it going to be for him to publish a link to register to vote?

Heck, given that DT’s staff monitor the right wing media fairly closely, I wouldn’t be surprised if we see exactly that happen in the next 48 hours.

>> They know this number to three decimal places of accuracy?

Why not. After all, 97.37% of all statistics are made up on the fly. What the heck, make that 97.378%.

The libs would scream at this. New republican voters. after all, how do they know all people signing up are eligible to vote, how about if they're too young to vote (Never mind the libs and ACORN signing up whoever, as long as they vote democRAT).

I don’t know about you, but watching Trump upset the apple cart is amazing to me. All these career politicians, who thought their future was secure, are all of a sudden threatened by someone who isn’t beholden to anyone or anything. “They” can sense their way of life and easy check is now in serious jeopardy.

Yes, I’m enjoying this immensely.

According to a study done by our own Sam Adams, it is irrelevant because even at 40 percent Trump crushes everyone else and in the week of the debate alone added more followers than most candidates even had---and you can bet they were interested in politics.

And Sam's #s differed from those given here for Rubio if I recall. But Trump's opposition won't be Rubio. It will be a socially anemic Bush or Cankles.
