A recent report suggests that the use of X, formerly Twitter, among Congressional Democrats has significantly decreased since Elon Musk assumed control of the social media platform. According to a public affairs firm's calculations, there has been a notable increase in the number of Republican lawmakers using X in 2024 compared to their Democratic counterparts.
The report highlights that out of the top 20 most active accounts for members of Congress, only one Democrat, Rep. Maxwell Frost from Florida, ranks at number 15. This marks a stark shift from the previous year when the top 10 most active congressional accounts were evenly split between Republicans and Democrats.
