@senatemajldr @LindsayGrahamSC @SenatorCollins @ZellaQuixote Here are the 25 accounts with the most extreme reply/retweet ratios in each direction. The data are a bit noisy, but overall the Republicans appear to be getting ratio'd more frequently than the Democrats.

@senatemajldr @LindsayGrahamSC @SenatorCollins @ZellaQuixote That's all for now; we may expand on this in the coming days.

@senatemajldr @LindsayGrahamSC @SenatorCollins @ZellaQuixote We downloaded the last 10 days of replies to the MoC Twitter accounts used in this thread, and ran them through VADER sentiment analysis. Sentiment scores overall trend negative; @RandPaul and @SenDuckworth are the biggest exceptions. Color of bar reflects median sentiment score.

@senatemajldr @LindsayGrahamSC @SenatorCollins @ZellaQuixote @RandPaul @SenDuckworth We then classified the accounts by political party, gender, and race of the Rep/Senator in question (caveat: not all MoCs have Twitter accounts with recent replies, and some have more than one, so these numbers will not precisely match the actual makeup of Congress.)
