Digital Politics: Evolution or Revolution?

If you can pull yourself away from desperately refreshing political news websites today, head over to Campaigns and Elections for a longer view of our political landscape.

In this month’s Technology Bytes, we step back and think about the longer-term trends in digital campaigning. Was 2016 a revolutionary year, or was it just another milestone on a straight road into our online future? I’ll argue that in at least one way, this election cycle introduced something truly new into political culture in this country. And, I think even the evolutionary trends may be leading us into unfamiliar land.

Sounds like good stuff to me! But you’ll have to go to C&E to learn more…which beats the hell out of hitting the Post or Politico sites for the 100th time today.
