The top 10 neighbors for Daily Kos Elections form a dense, undifferentiated cluster of political journalists and news publishers — no single entity pulls away from the pack.
The shape is flat: scores run from Dave Weigel at 0.96 down to Tommy Vietor at 0.95, a spread of less than four hundredths across all ten positions. Seven of the ten neighbors are Journalists by subcategory: Weigel (0.96), Ben Collins (0.96), Matt Fuller (0.96), Mark Knoller (0.96), Ezra Klein (0.96), Nate Cohn (0.96), and Nate Silver — though Silver falls just outside the top 10. Two neighbors are News Publishers: Politico (0.96) and Post Politics (0.96). The tenth, The Atlantic, is a Magazine (0.95). Tommy Vietor rounds out the set as a Politician (0.95). No other Websites — Daily Kos Elections' own subcategory — appear in the top 10, making this a cross-kind cluster dominated almost entirely by individual journalists and institutional news outlets rather than peer websites.
The composition points to an audience whose shape is defined by close engagement with the professional political press corps, spanning both beat reporters and data-focused journalists, with no meaningful separation between any of them.
