Definition

  • Election coverage refers to news media reports about candidates, parties, voters, and issues defining the selection of government representatives or referenda. While regular, competitive elections are considered a hallmark of democracy, they depend upon the voters' ability to be informed accurately and thoroughly in making their decisions.
