http://www.pbs.org/now/election-2008/index.html

CONTENT
This site was created by the staff of the PBS program NOW and offers news coverage and analysis dealing with the 2008 presidential election campaign.
SITE DESIGN
The site’s content is organized into four main areas: Burning Questions, Democracy Toolkit, Election 2008 ‘Toon In, and In the News. Links to other areas of the site can be found in the left or right sidebar.

 

REVIEW
Classes across America will be following and studying about the upcoming presidential election this fall and this site is a good resource for keeping abreast of the latest news as well as general information about the candidates and issues. The Burning Questions cover everything from the integrity of electronic voting to targeted voter suppression. The Democracy Toolkit links to web pages around the Internet that take users behind the headlines of the election with topics such as congressional election reform, analysis of ads and statements, campaign finance reform, ballot initiatives, and an Electoral College overview.
