Introducing the Knight Election Hub

On this episode, host Nakylah Carter chats with Knight Election Hub’s Erica Peterson and Scott Klein. The hub — an initiative funded by the Knight Foundation — contains more than 100 free and discounted resources for reporters and editors covering elections. There are voter guides, data sets, source lists and other helpful tools to answer questions about candidates’ backgrounds, policies, election trends and more. “Any newsroom that can hear my voice please come to us and use our resources to do incredible election coverage," Klein said of the one-stop destination to prepare for Election Day coverage.
