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.

I'll be updating those numbers over the weekend by the way. What I have been doing is tracking new followers added for each candidate since August 1 to see where the momentum is. Besides Trump, Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina have had the most Twitter momentum (as of last Sunday). A search on "Twitter Standings" as a subject title will pull those threads up.

I'll reset everything the first of each month so that the data does not get stale.
