How Qondi Ntini turned political thirst into campaign influence
Tia Mitchell talks with social media influencer Qondi Ntini about how online fandom, humor and “thirst trap” politics became part of Georgia’s U.S. Senate campaigns. Qondi explains how her “Thirst for Democracy” brand grew from organic posts about Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock into fundraising, campaign access and a broader conversation about political influencers. She also weighs the tension between authenticity and paid campaign content, and why she keeps her platform focused on the candidates she supports. Find Qondi’s content here: linktr.ee/qondi
