Presenter(s)
Alizabelle Carman
Abstract
In 2023, Stanford University and the University of Michigan conducted a study on social media during the 2020 Presidential election. In this research, I will analyze the pre-2020 election portion to assess how social media influences public opinion. The specific platform I will focus on is Facebook. Throughout the 2020 election, many political opinions were shared across various social media platforms. Analyzing this dataset may reveal the statistical significance between information disseminated on social media and the political opinions of voters as they head to the polls.
