A typical post picks up 1.8K interactions against 2.8M followers, an engagement rate of 0.064%. Measured over 36 original posts, its engagement rate beats 77% of 4,124 tracked accounts of a similar size. Comparing inside a size band matters here: engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly just re-measure the follower count. Posts are seen about 81K times each, and 2.23% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 2.89% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 2.2 posts a day over the last 30 days, with activity on roughly 53% of days. Most posts go out around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 36 posts sampled, 86% carry an image or video and 33% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 152K interactions, about 84x its own typical post.

Compared with accounts its own size

Ilhan Omar's engagement rate beats 77% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,124 accounts, accounts of similar size (decile 10 of 10)). A percentile is spread evenly by construction, so 50 really is the middle of that group and 90 really is its top tenth.

On engagement per impression rather than per follower it beats 79% of the same group. When those two numbers disagree, the gap is about how far its posts travel rather than how people react to them.

Where this sits in the catalog

At 0.064%, Ilhan Omar sits above the 25th percentile of the 40,288 accounts in this comparison. That places it in the below the median band, which runs 0.013% to 0.082%.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 40,288 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 92,710 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Tuesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

    Congratulations @AbdulElSayed! Outspent 11 to 1, Abdul proved that people-powered campaigns can still beat big money. Michiganders chose hope over fear, and a future rooted in dignity, justice, and opportunity. They want money out of politics, money in their pockets, and Medicare for All. Now it's time to unite, build on this momentum, and send Abdul to the U.S. Senate by defeating Mike Rogers. All hands on deck to win big in November.

What is Ilhan Omar's engagement rate on X?
Ilhan Omar (@IlhanMN) has an engagement rate of 0.064%, based on the median interactions across 36 original posts from the last 30 days against 2,810,491 followers. Replies, reposts and quote-posts of other people are excluded from that sample.
Is that a good engagement rate?
At 0.064%, Ilhan Omar sits above the 25th percentile of the 40,288 accounts in this comparison. Those comparison accounts are all large ones, because our scanning cadence is weighted towards big accounts, so this is a ranking among peers of similar scale rather than a ranking across X.
Does @IlhanMN have real engagement?
Its engagement rate beats 77% of the tracked X accounts closest to it in follower count (4,124 accounts), which puts it in the top quarter for its size group. Ranking inside a size band matters because engagement rate falls as accounts grow, so a raw rate would mostly re-measure the follower count. It is a starting point for a look at follower quality, not a verdict on it.
