Question 8 • Principles of American Democracy

How have changes in the media and modern technology most changed how candidates campaign?

Answer
A
Candidates often spend less on advertisements and more on polling.
B
Candidates must explain their positions well in written newspaper articles.
C
Candidates often effectively use social media to reach voters.
D
Candidates must be able to give convincing in-person speeches.

Explanation

Modern technology has made social media a direct and influential way for candidates to communicate with voters, share campaign messages, and respond quickly to events. So candidates often effectively use social media to reach voters. Newspaper articles, in-person speeches, advertising, and polling still matter, but they do not capture this major change as directly.
