It never ceases to amaze me how convenient apps on the iphone may be, and with election day fast approaching, it is no surprise that there are several useful apps concerning the election. The ability for voters to have access to instant information from their mobile phones allows them to be better informed and vote more appropriately then ever before. Furthermore, these apps allow voters to see the results of the election in real-time from anywhere in the world. These applications demonstrate how technology is becoming more infused with everyday culture as well as becoming more and more useful and easy to operate.

I go to <a class="user" href="http://electoral-vote.com/">http://electoral-vote.com/</a> every morning. This site has all the information you need to know in a very clear concise presentation. It starts with an electoral map and then summarizes the important issues and polls.

Yes you can, because promoting the fact that Obama has effectively already won will influence turnout, and could thereby change the outcome of the election. Look at how many people in clearly decided states already do not vote at all because they believe their votes will not count.

I see my grandmother has gone from sending me all caps emails to posting all caps comments on digg...

Despite my desire to bury you for all caps on a submission that isn't a HuffPost link... you get a digg for being right. The Digg news section is pretty much a HuffPost news aggregator. I'm a liberal, but I have a hard time stomaching that site. It's like Fox News from the other end of the political spectrum.

Dugg for "the left-leaning megablog The Huffington Post", the understatement of the election.
