Ellie here. As I mentioned last week, our Voter Hub is live!

Our goal is always to keep you as informed as possible, with free and accessible reporting. This Voter Hub has everything you need to know before casting your vote in the Nov. 3 general election.

We’ll continue to keep you in the loop on key races, issues that candidates are speaking about, and everything in between.

It also includes a tool that allows you to easily register to vote, and, if you’re voting for the first time, it has a guide on everything you need to know.

Check it out, click around, and let me know what you think! Or, is there anything else you’d like to see us cover in the Voter Hub?
