LANSING – Gongwer News Service’s 2014 Michigan Elections app, the groundbreaking new tool that debuted earlier this year with essential information and analysis on this year’s state and federal elections, is now available for half the original price.

Available for iOS and Android for $4.99, the app is the perfect tool for obtaining on-the-go, easy-to-navigate information as the November 4 election nears.

Since originally going on sale, praise has poured in from those who have purchased the app, from those who have found it an invaluable tool for their jobs to political junkies who just love following campaigns and elections.

The app’s major features include detailed candidate biographical information, Gongwer’s classifications of the competitiveness of all races for the Michigan Legislature and the state’s 14 U.S. House seats and exclusive Gongwer analysis of those races. And Gongwer will continue to update those analyses through the election.

Users can use the “Key Races” function to focus only on the match-ups that are legitimately competitive. Candidate profiles include endorsements, which will continue to update, as well as links to their social media accounts.

On election nights, Gongwer will update the app regularly with the latest returns as they are reported.
