NEW YORK (AP) — Fans of politics have another way to keep track of what’s happening in the most competitive states in the country through a new service that collects and streams local newscasts.
Swing State Election News, which began operation Monday, lets streamers choose from among 37 local television stations in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. They are primarily local affiliates of CBS, NBC, ABC and Fox. Those are the states that pollsters have concluded will most likely decide the presidential contest between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
The service will allow people to test the maxim of “all politics is local” by closely following how the campaigns are being waged there. “Nobody knows local politics better than the journalists in the local communities,” said Jack Perry, CEO of Zeam Media. Viewers can choose between live and archived programming Swing State Election N.
