Charlottesville–Right Now: Campaigns and Elections Editor Morgan Felchner

Morgan Felchner is the editor of Campaigns and Elections Magazine, which offers a “behind-the-scenes” look at politics. She speaks with Coy Barefoot of Charlottesville–Right Now about how her magazine demonstrates the strategies and tactics next years’ politicians are using now. She says campaign communications staff are utilizing viral websites such as YouTube to promote candidates, and bloggers are revolutionizing how the world views the politicians.

As a special bonus, the January issue is available for free online at their website, campaignline.com. The role of women and minorities in politics are focused on this month, as well as a special segment on Five Women to Watch – a look at the female politicians that don’t get as much press coverage as Hilliary Clinton and Nancy Pelosi.
