We’ve struggled a little to figure out how to cover the rather significant presidential elections in the United States this fall. On one hand, any support of a candidate makes some of you uncomfortable and we certainly don’t want to turn Punknews.org into the Huffington Post or Little Green Footballs.

Still, there are a lot of voting-aged people reading this right now, and it seems like it’d be worthwhile to provide some coverage outside of the things directly connected to music. So, rather than just start doing one thing or the other, we thought we’d just present the question and see what you think. Of course, we’ll continue to cover issues that are already part of our mandate like copyright reform, digital music and issues that affect us directly.

Simply put, should Punknews.org stay out of presidential politics?

We’ll be reading all the comments and coming up with some sort of consensus on how to cover things in the next few months.
