We’re in the height of a presidential campaign. Information is flowing from everywhere – the tv, radio, newspapers, talk shows, mail, billboards, your mother, and of course the Internet. More than ever in presidential campaign history, the Web is a main, central source of information. So where are the hotspots online to for election news and opinion?
Hitwise, an Internet monitor which collects data directly from ISP networks and markets the information, lists the Top 10 Political Web Sites for key political parties for the week ending September 13.
The results by rank, Web site, and market share are:
1. www.huffingtonpost.com……..8.55%
2. www.realclearpolitics.com…….6.26%
3. www.politico.com………………..4.9%

The results are based on US Internet usage. The ranking list features select Web sites.
My favorite is the Huffington Post. What’s yours?
