The Election Project was piloted in the Fall of 1998 in Professor Ken Hoover's Political Science 101 course. Students in the Election Project worked in teams assigned to one of four election-related concepts. Each team took information generated by their written reports and created a website. They streamed video election updates and team reports live on the Internet on Election Day.
