Microsoft Launching ‘Election 2012 Hub’ on Xbox

Microsoft has announced partnerships with NBC to create the Election 2012 Hub on the Xbox 360 via Xbox Live. It’ll have news, polls, etc. and it will be the largest live (real-time) polling for the elections we have ever seen.

A series of polls seeking Xbox users’ opinions of various aspects of the elections will be available on Election 2012 on Xbox LIVE. Additionally, users will be able to rate the performances of the candidates during the presidential debates in real-time, and instantly see how other Xbox users are voting.
