Google Earth adds Election Coverage

[BR_Parkway]

Mapping software Google Earth now has 2 new layers available: a U.S. Election Guide and Congressional Districts layer.

Enable the new layers within Google Earth (free to download, Mac or Windows), and see 436 Congressional districts outlined on the map throughout the U. S. of A., plus election information with candidate names, parties and links to register to vote. After the jump, check out a couple more detailed screenshots.



The 2006 U.S. Election Guide layers are not turned on by default. Check them off in the Layers area to enable 'em.

Click on the star placemark to get more info on that voting district, as shown. Useful! Now get out there and register to vote in the November 7th Congressional elections. —
