"Visibilità mediatica dei candidati alle primarie del Partito Democratico. Analisi con i dati di Bayes-Swarm"
This short comment about the recent Partito Democratico (PD) primary election concentrates on the three main candidates in the election campaign. Specifically, we focused on Walter Veltroni, Rosy Bindi and Enrico Letta´s media visibility using an original dataset. With our data we are able to measure how many times their names appear on online newspapers, blogs and news agencies. We believe our sample represents these candidates´ media visibility with a good approximation and we have tried to relate these values with the election results. Notably our indicator appears to foretell real final percentages with great accuracy
