Thanks @debmattinson @rchlgibson4 @federicacocco @carljackmiller @Megan_Lucero @WhatScotsThink John Curtice for speaking at #BigDataElection
Obama campaign able to micro target emails to individual voters on controversial topics such as contraception @rchlgibson4 #bigdataelection
Around 5% of voting age population contacted by parties by email @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
Relatively small number of voting age population were engaging with political parties through social media @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
Labour won the Twitter war, Conservatives won on Facebook @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
Parties certainly sought to extract data and mobilise voters thru their websites @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
Many were on @twitter @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
12% of candidates had no web presence. Only 41 had independent site @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
This is how we might know if this were a #BigDataElection @rchlgibson4 http://t.co/H8ERct74cv
We see the rise of online for community organising in 2010 election @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
A #BigDataElection would require a move towards data capture, extraction & targeting @rchlgibson4 It happened in US - did it happen in UK?
Charting the changes in political campaigning away from single campaign towards micro targeting voters @rchlgibson4 #BigDataElection
Lots of @UKLabour messages landed but no consistency so didn't add up to much @debmattinson #BigDataElection
Long term economic plan was dull but the message landed @debmattinson #BigDataElection
Policy was not very much of interest despite what people say they want @debmattinson #BigDataElection
National campaign seemed to matter more than local campaign (contra @uklabour strategy) @debmattinson #bigdataelection
Used focus groups tracked thru election with an app for them to diarise their experiences @debmattinson @BritainThinks #BigDataElection
1992 election @debmattinson was in charge of Labour polling - as a result learnt to trust focus groups more #BigDataElection
