46% des Américains utilisent Internet pour s'informer, participer, contribuer à la campagne présidentielle
Voilà ce que c'est que de repousser un projet de billet à plus tard... A peine le précédent billet publié sur une étude datant de janvier, voici que paraît une nouvelle étude de la même Fondation, avec de nouveaux chiffres tout frais.
Alors que les chiffres précédent portait essentiellement sur les jeunes (18-29 ans), cette nouvelle vague porte sur l'ensemble de la population en âge de voter. Les chiffres-clés, brut de décoffrage : ''
- Fully 46% of all Americans have used the internet, email, or phone texting to get news about the campaigns, share their views, and mobilize others.
- More Americans have gone online to get political news and campaign information so far than during all of 2004.
- Two new internet activities have stormed the political stage: 35% of Americans have watched online videos related to the campaign, and 10% have used social networking sites to engage in political activity.
- Nearly one in ten internet users has donated money to a candidate online at this point in the race.
- 39% of online Americans have used the internet to gain access to primary political documents and observe campaign events.
- Despite the increased salience of online sources in the political arena, wired Americans have mixed views about the overall impact of the internet on politics.''
A noter notamment ce gap saisissant entre les partisans de Barack Obama et d'Hillary Clinton en matière d'activisme online : ''
- Young voters tilt toward Obama specifically and toward Democrats generally, and that gives the Democrats some online advantages. Among Democrats, Obama supporters are more likely than Hillary Clinton’s to be internet users. 74% of wired Obama supporters have gotten political news and information online, compared with 57% of online Clinton supporters.
- Among online Democrats, Obama’s supporters are more likely than Clinton’s supporters to have made online campaign contributions (17% vs. 8%), to sign online petitions (24% vs. 11%), to have passed along political commentaries in blogs and other forms (23% vs. 13%), and to have watched campaign videos of any kind (64% vs. 43%).''
