Abstract
These chapters are based on research presented at the third American Elections conference held at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics on the campus of Saint Anselm College. They come from scholars of political science, communications, public policy, and political psychology. They deploy a diverse set of methods to examine various facets of Twitter’s role in the last election and shed light on the ways in which Twitter will continue to affect the course of modern American politics, 140 characters at a time.
