In recent years, the popular social media website Twitter has become a major venue for national politicians campaigning for office or commenting on public policy battles.

Among the Democratic candidates, Sanders leads with about 9.38 million followers on Twitter, a slight increase from May when at one point he had approximately 9.28 million followers.

Behind Sanders, all approximations, are Booker with 4.3 million followers, Biden with 3.62 million followers, Harris with 2.91 million followers, Warren with 2.8 million followers, and best-selling author and spiritualist Marianne Williamson with 2.7 million followers.

Harris’ number of followers is about 250,000 more than she had at one point in May. Warren, Williamson, and Biden also saw increases in Twitter followers, though not as large as Harris.
