Mobile presidential election coverage
Nov 01 2004 - 01:19 PM ET | Data
With the US presidential election tomorrow, we thought it would be a good idea to list various sources to catch info about the race via your mobile phone. News sources will be updating throughout the day tomorrow and exit polls will be flying as soon as the polls close on the East coast (7PM ET). Not everyone will be at home to catch the coverage, but you can join in on the fun using the below links and a mobile phone.
Ed. note, links may go to WAP sites. You should type the URL into your phone, decide if you like the site, and bookmark it. When we say a service is free, standard access fees from your carrier are not included--just that there is no charge from the content provider.
