Sinn Féin 'dominant' political party on social media in last two years

People Before Profit and the Social Democrats saw significant increases in social media followers, according to survey

Sinn Féin social media reaches 934,545 users, with the other parties combined only reaching 784,761.

Sinn Féin is the "dominant party" on social media in the last two years — but the new Fine Gael leader has more reach on TikTok than every other political party combined, according to new research.

While Sinn Féin has more followers across the major social media platforms — X, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Threads, and TikTok — than all other parties, Simon Harris's posts reach the most people on the latter.
