Digital Polls and Public Influence Analyzing the Impact of X (Twitter) Polls in Pakistan

    In this digitally connected globe, the use of digital applications, especially Twitter (X), has increased manifold. Social media has become an apparatus not only for the political elite but also for the masses to express their political opinions. The introduction of digital polls on Twitter (X) gauges the pubic engagement and their interest in political matters. These digital surveys are conducted to monitor and measure the pulse of masses and create policies accordingly. The survey provides an overview of the masses willingness to participate in these polls. Besides this, hashtags are integral part of social media that are essential to make or break a story. Political polarization and difference of opinion is also visible in such polls.
