The latest research on the digital humanities has been mostly propositional and with a transdisciplinary trajectory. The study related to the new technologies in the field is guided by the selection of big data tools and applications that facilitate the transformation of quantifiable data into qualitative data, in a mixed approach of pattern detection. This research report aims to characterize the discourse issued under the #ElectionsUSA hashtag using the Stela and Brand 24 data mining applications, in addition to multimodal discourse analysis. It is a descriptive study that presents conclusions about the framework assumed by Twitter users around the news event of the North American elections during the month of November 2020. It also shows the use of emerging methodologies from computer science in the dissertation on digital humanities and communication.

Keywords : #ElectionsUSA; data mining; multimodal discourse analysis; digital humanities.
