NOTHING CREEPY ABOUT THIS AT ALL: Twitter Facial Analysis Reveals Demographics of Presidential Campaign Followers. “The analysis by Wu and co is straightforward. They study both candidates’ followers, their user names, geographical information and each follower’s number of followers to determine their influence. In particular, they look at each user’s picture and use a machine-learning program to determine whether it shows a male or female and to identify that person’s ethnicity. The results are simple to state. An interesting angle is the gender balance of Clinton’s followers. While Clinton enjoys substantial female support among politicians, Wu and co say there is good evidence that her support among average Democratic women has fallen sharply. . . . Trump, however, has an almost identical level of support at 45 percent.”
