What's a 'Live Blog?'


By JUSTIN SMITH

To our users,

A Live Blog is one of the newest ways technology is changing the political landscape this election year. In a sense, it's an instant replay of the event we're covering, updated to the minute.

We'll watch an event, like a debate, and post a summary of what's taking place, as well as our commentary or reaction.

Want to sound off yourself? Leave a comment on the Live Blog post.
