We need help with some data collection task. Below are the details.
I am attaching a list of congressional members from 2012 -2014.
1. Go to Twitter API, download the API / tweet data since the start date of Twitter.
2. Search and find the account of the politician based on the names [it will most likely be a verified account]
3. Record the opening date of the Twitter account
4. For each week since the account opening date, record politician activity - the number of tweets the politician sent each week, the number of retweets of other people's tweets – record the geotag of tweets
5. Record the number of tweets each politician received from other people in each week – and record the geotag
6. Record the number of unique accounts that sent tweets to the politician from each geotag in each week
