70 Percent Of Obama's Twitter Followers Are Fake

In a report released on Friday, it was revealed that most of President Obama’s 18.8 million Twitter followers are fake. Based on figures revealed in a New York Times article, more than 13 million of the President’s Twitter followers simply do not exist. Republican Candidate Mitt Romney is not faring much better. He only has 900,000 Twitter followers, but most of them are also fake.

The Times used a new web tool to arrive at their conclusions:

“If accurate, the number of fake followers out there is surprising. According to the StatusPeople tool, 71 percent of Lady Gaga’s nearly 29 million followers are “fake” or “inactive.” So are 70 percent of President Obama’s nearly 19 million followers.”

I’m not worried about millions of fake twitter accounts; I’m worried about millions of fake votes.

Every single poll I hear every day I figure half to three fourths of what the figures states in Obamas ratings. If its 45% its really more like 20% or less.

That’s poetic: fake followers for a fake.
