The Internet has played a large roll in disseminating poltical information quickly. According to the Pew Research Center, nearly a quarter of Americans say they regularly learn something about the campaign from the internet, more than double the amount of people from 2004 and forty-two percent of those aged 18-29 regularly learn about the campaign from the internet, making it the number one information source for that age demographic. We’ve seen a candidate like Ron Paul, who gets the least exposure on television, raise the most amount of money during the last quarter. He is also the only Republican candidate to increase his fundraising totals in every quarter of 2007 thanks in part to his supporters’ use of social news sites like Digg and viral videos. Additionally, new sites like Maplight.org are allowing users to examine the connection between campaign contributions and legislative votes, going beyond the official politican blogs and online videos to portray a more transparent view of the candidates.
