Abstract
Analysis 670,000 messages were collected during the 2014 Quebec election regarding each political party using a framing strategy. After associating each message to one of the four main topics of the campaign, two logistic models were developed to describe the election. While having been set by the incumbent party, the topic of "Independence" was not the most important topic of the campaign ("Economy" and "Society" were). When dominating in terms of mentions, each party was associated to a topic, and such association changed during the campaign.
Résumé
Nous avons collecté 670 000 messages concernant l’élection québécoise de 2014 en utilisant une stratégie de cadrage. Chaque message fut associé à une thématique de campagne, puis deux modèles logistiques furent utilisés pour décrire les élections. Ainsi, alors que le thème de l’indépendance fut mis à l’avant par le parti sortant, ce sont les messages reliés à l’économie et à la société qui furent les plus importants. Chaque parti fut associé préférentiellement à une thématique lorsqu’il domina en termes de mentions, et nous observons une évolution de cette association au cours de la campagne électorale.
