The issues 2020 Democrats are running on, according to their social media

The Democratic field has swelled to 23 candidates, with 20 candidates set to appear in the first primary debate over two nights. These candidates are all offering solutions to the nation’s most pressing problems, but there are major differences in the issues the campaigns are choosing to emphasize.

A Washington Post analysis of more than 9,200 social media posts from May 15 through June 15 found that the field overall has been prioritizing health care and social justice. However, some candidates are choosing to focus their campaigns on other topics, such as climate change, foreign policy and gun control.

Although social media is just one piece of the larger campaign, the issues that candidates highlight there signal where they could spend their political capital if elected. Campaign messaging on these platforms also helps identify the coalition of primary voters that the candidates are hoping to target.
