Popülist söylemlerin bir siyasal iletişim biçimi olarak nasıl kullanıldığını göstermeyi amaçlayan bu çalışmada, 31 Mart 2019 yerel seçiminde siyasal ittifakları temsil eden belediye başkan adaylarının popülist söylem üretme biçimleri incelenmiştir. 2019 yerel seçiminde Twitter’ı etkin olarak kullanan üç büyük şehrin Cumhur ve Millet ittifakı adaylarının Twitter paylaşımları eleştirel söylem çözümlemesi ve içerik çözümlemesi yöntemiyle incelenmiştir. Ruth Wodak’ın popülist söylemlerle ilgili çözümleme kategorilerinden yararlanılarak Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi (AK Parti) ve Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi (CHP)’nin adaylarının seçim kampanyaları sürecindeki popülist söylemleri analiz edilmiştir. İçerik çözümlemesinde, popülist unsurlar içeren anahtar sözcükler üzerinden adayların bu sözcükleri ne sıklıkta kullandıkları tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, Twitonomy uygulaması kullanılarak adayların üç aylık seçim kampanyası sürecinde ‘tweet’ ve tekrar paylaşılma sayıları ve adayların etkileşim düzeyleri üzerinden adayların popülerliğinin ölçülmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, popülizmin unsurlarının her iki ittifakın söylemlerinde de yer aldığı, ancak Cumhur ittifakının ana bileşeni olan AK Parti adaylarının popülist tondaki söylemlerinin daha fazla olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Wodak’ın belirlediği popülist söylem stratejilerinin siyasal söylemlerde belirgin bir biçimde kullanıldığı sonucuna ulaşılmıştır.
