Now we know who, more or less, will win. It’s close between 12 and 13, but I don’t think there will be a major upset. So, with these 12 coming in, who are the most popular of the 24 Senators for 2013-2016?

Miriam is basking in popularity as always. It would be a loss when she leaves for the ICC. I think that the incumbent Senators didn’t get to use Social Media as much in 2010, and so their accounts are dormant or even discontinued. But watch, they will be up and running soon. 2016 is just around the corner.
