This document analyzes social media data related to policy topics collected from Twitter over a one week period. It finds that a small number of users, mainly news agencies and organizations, contribute the majority of content. The average user discussing policy on Twitter is more active than typical users. Discussion is geographically concentrated in regions with high population densities. A few topics, like privacy and minimum wage, received extensive discussion, while most topics were underrepresented. Sentiment analysis found that genetic engineering, immigration, and political donations received more negative sentiment, while privacy and fracking had more mixed positive and negative sentiment. The study is limited to one platform, language, time period and has scarce geo-location data for tweets.
