Facebook primaries

This is the latest installment of the Facebook primaries updates. I’ve been keeping track of primary presidential candidates’ Facebook profiles, taking a periodic tracking of their number of “supporters” (i.e. “friends”). Note that Rudy Giuliani no longer has a profile (suggesting the numbers from last week weren’t “official”).

Democrats

Republicans

It still looks like a clean sweep for Obama. But w/ Giuliani not yet in the Facebook race, anything could happen. Also, several of the GOP rankings shifted considerably, w/ Ron Paul jumping into second & Mike Huckabee jumping into sixth.
