| Real estate mogul Donald Trump delivered some of the most talked-about moments during the prime-time Republican presidential debate, garnering the most mentions on Twitter, with retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson a distant second.
Trump was also the most-discussed candidate on Facebook during last night's debate, with Carson again behind him, and Trump was the most searched name on Google, according to data released by the companies.
Trump, Carson, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, US Senator Marco Rubio and six other Republicans squared off in Cleveland in the first major debate for the crowd seeking the party's nomination in the November 2016 election.
Twitter said Trump, who led in the polls going into the debate, garnered about 30% of the mentions, with Carson behind him around 12%.
Bush, ranked second in a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, placed seventh in Twitter mentions.
According to Facebook, which said it saw 7.5 million people making 20 million debate-related interactions, the most-discussed issues were immigration and race relations, followed by the economy.
Both Twitter and Facebook said the most talked-about moment on their platforms came between New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and US Senator Rand Paul.
Paul has supported curbs on the government's ability to collect information on Americans, which Christie said could put US citizens at risk
