Abstract
While the use of social networking sites during elections has already been the focus of numerous studies, the emergence of new social media platforms requires us to re-examine their findings in a new light. That is why, based on post-electoral survey data, this paper studies the profiles of citizens who used different social media platforms to consume political information or engage in political action during the 2022 French presidential election. This paper ultimately finds that the use of social media during campaigns remains relatively limited and depends on both socio-demographic and political variables. Nevertheless, there are differences observed in use across platforms and in terms of online practices.
