Western Connecticut State University (WCSU) will be presenting its 13th annual “Election Connection” news production on Election Day to provide local coverage of Connecticut races, as well as weather updates and exploration of important issues.
Since its debut in November 2011, “Election Connection” has provided election night coverage of news and race results featuring an anchor team of students and faculty, supported by student reporters covering key races and voter concerns. This year’s show airs on Nov. 7, from 8:00 p.m. to midnight and will stream over YouTube at WCSU Studio Election Connection, on Facebook and on the WCSU website at www.wcsu.edu/live. A radio simulcast will air on WXCI-91.7 FM and social media access is available on X/Twitter @ElectionCT.
“This year’s election is important with many local and state races to report on,” said Dr. J.C. Barone, WCSU professor of communication and media arts and “Election Connection” executive producer. “Word has spread that this is an educational experience that will help students in their careers regardless of what their discipline is.”
