The 9th #DemDebate of the 2020 presidential campaign season generated far more Twitter traffic than its eight predecessors, peaking at over 9000 tweets per minute (previous record was ~5500 tweets/per minute.)

@ZellaQuixote Which candidates were most discussed in last night's #DemDebate tweets? @MikeBloomberg, @ewarren, and @BernieSanders were the top three, with ~300K tweets about each. @JoeBiden was the least mentioned of the debate participants, and @TulsiGabbard the least mentioned overall.
@ZellaQuixote @MikeBloomberg @ewarren @BernieSanders @JoeBiden @TulsiGabbard Retweet network for #DemDebate/#DemDebate9/#DemocraticDebate on 2020-02-19. Unlike recent debates, the network doesn't split into left-wing and right-wing clusters, largely because there's relatively little right-wing traffic (and most of it is @RealJamesWoods.)
@ZellaQuixote @MikeBloomberg @ewarren @BernieSanders @JoeBiden @TulsiGabbard @RealJamesWoods Who won the 9th #DemDebate? Based on the relative volume of tweets of the form "<candidate X> won the #DemDebate", the answer is Elizabeth Warren, with over a thousand times as many tweets declaring her victory using this phrasing as any other candidate.
@ZellaQuixote @MikeBloomberg @ewarren @BernieSanders @JoeBiden @TulsiGabbard @RealJamesWoods Where did the "Elizabeth Warren won the #DemDebate" tweets come from? Not bots - rather, this appears to be a project initiated by some of Warren's campaign staff. 16 of the first 20 accounts (green borders) tweeting the phrase are affiliated with her campaign per their profiles.
@ZellaQuixote @MikeBloomberg @ewarren @BernieSanders @JoeBiden @TulsiGabbard @RealJamesWoods Retweet/quote tweet network for "Elizabeth Warren won the #DemDebate". It primarily spread via quote tweets of @JulianCastro's quote tweet. We don't consider this traffic nefarious (the accounts aren't hiding their affiliation), but it does appear to be somewhat manufactured.
