  • The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network
    PLATFORMS AND OUTSIDERS IN PARTY NETWORKS: THE EVOLUTION OF THE DIGITAL POLITICAL ADVERTISING NETWORK Bridget Barrett A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts at the Hussman School of Journalism and Media. Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Daniel Kreiss Adam Saffer Adam Sheingate © 2020 Bridget Barrett ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Bridget Barrett: Platforms and Outsiders in Party Networks: The Evolution of the Digital Political Advertising Network (Under the direction of Daniel Kreiss) Scholars seldom examine the companies that campaigns hire to run digital advertising. This thesis presents the first network analysis of relationships between federal political committees (n = 2,077) and the companies they hired for electoral digital political advertising services (n = 1,034) across 13 years (2003–2016) and three election cycles (2008, 2012, and 2016). The network expanded from 333 nodes in 2008 to 2,202 nodes in 2016. In 2012 and 2016, Facebook and Google had the highest normalized betweenness centrality (.34 and .27 in 2012 and .55 and .24 in 2016 respectively). Given their positions in the network, Facebook and Google should be considered consequential members of party networks. Of advertising agencies hired in the 2016 electoral cycle, 23% had no declared political specialization and were hired disproportionately by non-incumbents. The thesis argues their motivations may not be as well-aligned with party goals as those of established political professionals. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF TABLES AND FIGURES ....................................................................................................................

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 9, 2020 DEMOCRATIC LIEUTENANT GOVERNORS ANNOUNCE NEW CHAIR MICHIGAN LT. GOVERNOR GARLIN GILCHRIST II ELECTED CHAIR THREE NEW MEMBERS OF EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE WASHINGTON — The Democratic Lieutenant Governors Association (DLGA) announced today that Michigan Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II will serve as the organization’s Chair in 2021. “This year has been particularly consequential for lieutenant governors, who have been called upon to take the reins of responsibility as we lead our states in unprecedented ways in light of a lack of national leadership,” Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II said. “With an incoming Biden/Harris Administration, we have an opportunity to expand the role and responsibility of lieutenant governors to serve as advocates and advisors on our nation’s most pressing issues. I look forward to leading the Democratic Lieutenant Governors Association into a new era of leadership and possibility.” New York Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul completed her term after overseeing record breaking fundraising and spending as the organization’s Chair in 2020. “Lieutenant governors have a unique platform to advocate for communities and bring innovative solutions to their state capitols, and the pandemic has only amplified their role in fighting COVID-19 and building back better,” said outgoing DLGA Chair New York Lt. Governor Kathy Hochul. “I’m proud to have elevated the role of the Democratic Lieutenant Governors Association at the national-level, and use that momentum as a platform to showcase the incredible diversity and talent of our members. I want to congratulate Michigan Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II on his election as the next Chair of the DLGA, and I look forward to continuing helping elect and re-elect more Democratic Lieutenant Governors next year." The DLGA also welcomed three new members to its Executive Committee: California Lt.
