These days, with the next election looming, it seems like there is a new political story every day. Presidential candidates are out campaigning and no one wants to miss the most recent news. If you want a new, fun way to keep up with your politics, then here are three mobile apps that can help you: Political Fury, Politico, and Pulse. Using the three together will give you a fun, objective, and informed look at America’s presidential election and biggest political news.

Political Fury

Political Fury is the fun part of keeping up with your politics.  The new mobile app is a trivia game between ‘Republican’ and ‘Democratic’ teams.  You go head to head with the other side and the goal is to answer as many questions correctly as possible and help your party win. Not to mention, you will learn plenty of American political history and even recent campaign information along the way.

Politifact

Politifact is the objective part of your political coverage.  Use it to enhance your trivia base for Political Fury and to check out the facts behind all the campaigning and advertising out there.  Politifact is like a giant neutral arbiter: you can use the app to check out any new political statement you hear from the campaign trail to see if it is fact, spin, or just plain lies.  It’s a new way to become an informed voter.

Pulse

Pulse is the news part of your political research. If Political Fury gives you the fun trivia and Politifact lets you verify the truth, Pulse keeps you up to date. The app lets you choose a set of news sources and you receive the most important updates from them into your news feed. It’s the fast, easy way to keep informed for people on the go.
It’s election time everybody.  Go get your politics on!
