  • 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 ....................................................................................................................

  • Montgomery County Voters’ Guide Expanded Edition
    Montgomery County Voters’ Guide Expanded Edition 2018 General Election About this Voters' Guide The League of Women Voters of Montgomery County has published a Voters’ Guide for many years to assist citizens in their decision-making process as they prepare to vote. The League of Women Voters does not support or oppose any candidate or political party. This guide contains the candidates’ responses to ALL of the questions on issues asked by the League, for ALL offices on the 2018 General Election ballot. The information was downloaded September 23, 2018 directly from Vote411.org exactly as entered by the candidate, without any changes, or provided by the candidate in the information filed with the State Board of Election. This same information is available in an interactive online format at Vote411.org, along with any additional responses received after our September 23 download date. This guide is offered as a supplement to the Voters’ Guide that was printed as a tabloid newspaper and is available in Montgomery County Public Libraries and other locations throughout the county. The printed guide was also mailed to newly registered voters who registered from January through August 2018. Because of the large number of offices on the ballot, it was necessary to abbreviate the information in the print version in order to keep it to a manageable, readable, and affordable length. The following guidelines were used for the print edition: • If a candidate's name is printed on the General Election ballot, we printed the responses to at least half of questions and directed the reader to Vote411.org and to this document on our website lwvmocomd.org to read the candidate’s responses to the remaining questions.
