Hanging out at the 2012 Political Conventions
Friday, August 24, 2012
With just 76 days until Election Day, next week begins a flurry of political activity as the national conventions get underway. And while very few people can make the trip to the
Republican National Convention
in Tampa, FL., or the
Democratic National Convention
in Charlotte, N.C., Google+ is bringing the conventions straight to your laptops and mobile phones in a series of Google+ hangouts with the convention organizers and top media organizations.
Over the course of both conventions, you’ll be able to tune in live via Google+ hangout, hearing from and talking with top media outlets who are on hand to make sense of all the politics. Check out The official Google+ pages for the
Republican National Convention
(
#RNC2012
) and
DemConvention
(
#DNC2012
) to get the latest news. Also, tune into our Google Politics & Elections
page
every day to see live Google+ hangouts with the following media partners:
Associated Press
CBS News
CNN
Fox News
Huffington Post
LA Times
National Journal
NBC News/MSNBC
Newsweek/Daily Beast
New York Times
NJ Star-Ledger
PBS NewsHour
Reuters

Washington Post
We’re looking forward to making this year’s conventions the most interactive ever. In addition to these hangouts with top Google+ partners, we’ll have a few surprises up our sleeves to give you never-before-seen access to the conventions. Stay tuned for more in the coming days as things heat up in Tampa and Charlotte!
