<p>The <a href="http://www.npr.org/blogs/bryantpark/">Bryant Park Project</a> (<a href="http://twitter.com/bpp">Twitter feed here</a>)now has an inner core of over 200 &#8220;<a href="http://smartpei.typepad.com/robert_patersons_weblog/2008/01/future-of-radio.html">Diners</a>&#8221; &#8211; this in a week.  As Twitter gains a hold, BPP are also looking at how Twitter affects the political process. Here is the Twitter reality of the Primaries as compiled by <a href="http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=648630276&amp;ref=ts">Laura C        </a><!-- end blog posting div -->&lt;!&#8211;    &#8211;&gt;</p>
<blockquote><p>I&#8217;m scrounging around for legitimate Twitter feeds from the presidential candidates. So far, my list looks like this:</p>
<p>Ron Paul, <a href="http://twitter.com/RonPaul2008">@RonPaul2008</a>, with 822 followers<br />
John Edwards, <a href="http://twitter.com/johnedwards">@johnedwards</a>, with 4,282 followers<br />
Barack Obama, <a href="http://twitter.com/barackobama">@BarackObama</a>, with 6,654 followers<br />
Hillary Clinton, <a href="http://twitter.com/hillaryclinton">@hillaryclinton</a>, with 197 followers</p></blockquote>
<p>What do make of the Obama/Clinton result here?</p>
<p>What could Twitter do to bring younger voters back?</p>
<p>How might Twitter affect politics?</p>
