Potomac Primary Coverage and a Green Valentine's Day

February 12, 2008 8:15 AM

The news networks and their Web sites will be busy again today when Washington, D.C., Virginia and Maryland tee up for the so-called “Potomac Primary.”

You can check out the usual suspects at http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/ or ABCnews.go.com, for instance.

Or you can set your clock for appointment viewing for 7 p.m. ET, when the Washington Post offers live online video coverage of the day of voting at www.washingtonpost.com/postpoliticstv. The coverage will include Washington-based journalists as well as continuously updated election and poll results. The live video will run from 7 to 10 p.m. ET.

And when you’re done with that, or during a break, you should check out this green guide to Valentine’s Day. I, for one, am usually a humbug on Valentine’s Day, but if I were to actually observe the day, I’d definitely go green with it. You should, too!
