This chart might be incorrect for https://www.hillaryclinton.com, BuiltWith shows it is using:

- Microsoft IIS 8 for a server

- ASP.NET

https://builtwith.com/hillaryclinton.com

No mention of python.

Built with seems wrong, look at the server headers:

BuiltWith has cached results. Try

curl -I https://www.hillaryclinton.com/

curl -I https://www.hillaryclinton.com/api/oauth/token

Varnish in front of S3 and Tornado.

Moreover, I'm very curious to know how one even finds out such things (whether they're running on some python framework or ISP.net, etc.). I'm thinking a basic nmap scan can tell what server they're using (actually I'll try that out right now and report results in a few)
