contents Network time series are becoming increasingly relevant in the study of dynamic processes characterised by a known or inferred underlying network structure. Generalised Network Autoregressive (GNAR) models provide a parsimonious framework for exploiting the underlying network, even in the high-dimensional setting. We extend the GNAR framework by presenting the $\textit{community}$-$α$ GNAR model that exploits prior knowledge and/or exogenous variables for identifying and modelling dynamic interactions across communities in the network. We further analyse the dynamics of $\textit{ Red, Blue}$ and $\textit{Swing}$ states throughout presidential elections in the USA. Our analysis suggests interesting global and communal effects.
