SENTIMENTAL ANALYSIS- USING SOCIAL MEDIA TO PREDICT ELECTION RESULTS

Our project aims to enlighten the people running an election campaign about how popular they are and how their campaign is, based on reviews fetched from various social media platforms such as Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and so on. The idea behind this project is to give the election contestants a fair idea about how well they are faring and also get an understanding of what they need to work on based on the comments from the social media sites. The project is very user friendly and simple to use as it requires only keywords that must be input into the machine and the algorithm will do the rest. We provide a visual, graphic representation of the output so that it is simpler to understand.
