Top Ten Political Tweeters in Illinois - Peraica’s Number 1!

Thanks to Lt. Gov. candidate Thomas Castillo (@ThomasCastillo) for spearheading this list of the top ten Illinois politicians on Twitter.

We’ll keep this list updated right here on ReformCookCounty.com - so check back often to monitor the rankings.  We realize the Illinois House Republicans and United Republican Fund aren’t “politicians” per se, but they have a good amount of followers and represent politicians — but since they are political and/or campaign organizations we added them to the list.

Please tweet us with updates or to let us know if we’re missing anyone:

1 @Tonyperaica -1871

2. @AdamforIllinois– 1472

3. @SaraFeigenholtz -1399

4. @QuigleyCampaign–1360

5. @PulidoForCongress-1298

6. @andy_mckenna–1057

7. @BirkettforIL – 1039

8. @RutherfordDan – 984

9. @repaaronschock - 963

10. @ThomasCastillo – 830

Honorable Mentions:

11. @JacksonJrOnline – 821 (Jesse Jackson, Jr.)

12. @Mannyflores – 599

12. @CharlieWheelan – 540

We’ve Started a Twitter Revolution

Our use of Twitter to “live tweet” county board meetings first caused quite a stir — with some fellow commissioners “pooh-poohing” our use of the social media tool to open up the county board proceedings.

But it seems we’ve started a Twitter revolution.

Commissioner Schneider now has a Twitter accounty.  CommissionerGoslin has one, too.

And, lo and behold, the Stroger Administration is now “tweeting!”

We 100% welcome every one of these folks to the Twittersphere … and hope it fosters a healthy interactive dialogue on the future of our county.

Although, we will point out that an interactive dialogue would require the Stroger Administration to actually follow other tweeters…rather than just use it as a one-way broadcast mechanism.
