@michaelaleo Hi! We (Open State Foundation, my employer) and the Sunlight Foundation (together with AccessNow) reached an agreement with Twitter last week to allow politwoops to run (We were shut down also)
Awesome - glad you guys are back! Have you considered sharing the deleted Tweets via images on your own Twitter feed? Or is this not allowable under the Twitter + Sunlight agreement?
Hi! Thanks for hunting this! I originally built this thing back in 2010 and still run all the non-US versions of Politwoops (The US version is run by the Sunlight Foundation, BTW)
Love this. No doubt the arrogance of politicians will mean there will be lots of deleted tweets. Have to say that I agree with Richard Corbett's tweet above though. Would be fantastic to find a politician whose primary interest is their country rather than their political party. ;O)

@russwrites I bet the rate of late night deleted drunk tweets is high. I agree, deleted tweet equals "what I really think"
I think this will be a hit. Once it opens up to US politicians (currently only European elected officials), I'm sure we'll have a field day seeing everything Donald Trump has deleted.
@mcuban, what does this mean for Xpire? Are my tweets not deleted, but merely just hidden on the surface?
Clever idea - should expand it to all celebrities! Implementing a leaderboard would also be interesting, as I'd love to see which politician is guilt of the most deleted tweets, monthly or all-time.
