python 2.7 - twitter search api not returning exact phrase results everytime -
the twitter search api not returning tweets have exact phrase. i'm using quotes documentation specifies https://dev.twitter.com/rest/public/search
here search looks like
search_phrase = 'puppies' tweet_results = [status status in tweepy.cursor(api.search, q='"{}"'.format(search_phrase), lang = 'en', count = 100).items(1000)]
of 1000 tweets 46 of them not contain "puppies" here example output below. perhaps "puppies" located somewhere else in tweet object? maybe in users section of profile. below bad responses.
