Sunday's U.S. Presidential debate was the most-tweeted debate in Twitter's ten-year history, the social network said. Twitter users sent more than 17 million debate-related tweets during the 90 minute debate. The second presidential debate between Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump was held at Washington University in Saint Louis. Officials at the school in the state of Missouri held a lottery for seating. More than 10,000 students applied; 315 received seats just hours before the debate began. Part of the anticipation surrounding the debate came from recent information about statements by former Secretary of State Clinton and businessman Trump. Two days before the debate, a video appeared on the internet showing Donald Trump making lewd comments about women. Then, Wikileaks released parts of Hillary Clinton's speeches to financial companies. The speeches appeared to show her close ties with those companies.
