Announcing the 2012 Google News elections section
Wednesday, January 4, 2012
Posted by Scott Zuccarino, Product Manager
Who just endorsed whom? What do the latest polls say? How much money did they raise this quarter? Keeping up with the 2012 elections in the U.S. and staying abreast of breaking developments can be quite a task in today’s fast-paced news cycle. So today, we’re excited to continue our
tradition
of supporting you during elections season. Google News is launching an Elections section on its
homepage
which will organize and present elections coverage as it grows through the general election -- Tuesday, November 6, 2012.
The Elections section will be visible by default for all US users and will be located beneath the Health section. It will bring readers the latest and most relevant news stories, using all of the ranking intelligence that users have come to expect of Google. You should also check out Google’s official
elections page
, YouTube’s collection of
candidate videos
, and the elections
Trends Dashboard
to find out more about how people are interacting with the elections online.
