Abstract
The study of political communication that occurs from social networks has focused almost exclusivelyon the effectiveness of these platforms as electoral tools.However, the understanding of what we can understand as a public and political digital place, fromwhich inputs can be obtained to improve the decision and design processes and monitoring of publicpolicies, seems to be still unattended.This study aims to argue the existence of a “digital political territory”, where it is not only possibleto deploy political action, but it is also possible to find -recognize and analyze, by means of big datatechniques- deliberative elements of the politic discussion, which could serve as inputs for public actionsand decisions (beyond merely electoral ones).For this we identified six specific characteristics, whose cumulative presence would make up the digitalpolitical territory, and we argued that it would only be on Twitter where we can find those characte-ristics.
