客观上的美国政治已经变得更加国家化，这一趋势得到了参议员社交媒体模式的支撑，这些模式鼓励与庞大的数字选民建立联系。这篇文章考察了美国参议员如何通过他们在Twitter上的选民交流来反映和延续这种国家政策优先事项的趋势。方法我调查参议员是如何反映和延续这个国家政策优先事项的时代的，方法是使用两年的推文数据集来展示参议员们是如何使用Twitter来阐明强有力的政策议程的。结果参议员的政策驱动型信息是Twitter上建立声誉的主导风格。参议员们正在采用将政策放在首位的数字代表方式，将自己定位为立法专家，强调突出的政策，而不是地方关切。结论：参议员们正在传达一种政策优先的代表风格，符合培养出的政策联盟的期望，而推特提供了一个鸟瞰一个来源的信息，以引起公众的国家关注。
Objective American politics has become more nationalized, and this trend is buoyed by senators’ social media patterns that incentivize connections with an expansive digital constituency. This article examines how U.S. senators reflect and perpetuate this trend of national policy priorities with their constituent communication on Twitter. Methods I investigate how senators reflect and perpetuate this era of national policy priorities by using a two‐year data set of tweets to show how senators are using Twitter to articulate a robust policy agenda. Results Senators’ policy‐driven messaging is the dominant style of reputation building on Twitter. Senators are adopting digital styles of representation that prioritize policy, positioning themselves as legislative experts to emphasize salient policies rather than local concerns. Conclusion Senators are communicating a policy‐first style of representation that meets the expectations of cultivated policy coalitions, and Twitter offers a birds‐eye view of one source for the public's nationalized attention.
