washingtonpost.com Launches Presidential Campaign Tracker

Via Adrian Holovaty, see the “washingtonpost.com’s Presidential Campaign Tracker uses information from campaigns, media reports and other sources to compile a listing of events involving presidential candidates and their spouses. The tracker covers events since January 2007. It does not include every event — particularly fundraisers, which often are unannounced. Some events will be added retroactively as more details become available.

  • The list of candidates gives you an overview of recent and upcoming campaign events. Each candidate gets his or her own page (e.g., Mike Huckabee). In addition, each candidate gets a page for each state he or she has visited — e.g., Mike Huckabee’s visits to Iowa, or the full list of states Barack Obama has visited.
  • You can browse by date on a color-coded calendar, and, of course, each day has its own permalink (e.g., April 13, 2007). Each state gets its own page, too, so you can keep an eye on past and future candidate visits to Illinois, for example.
  • RSS feeds for every candidate and every state [are available]. Full information is here.”
