The Incredible Influence of Candidate Website on Voters

Today is the elections day, even without going out of our campus, I can still feel the enthusiasm of American people towards this big day by visiting candidates’ websites. On Obama’s website, there are various pieces of news about preparation for and progress of today’s election for Obama. The second-tier content of website plays a key role at this most critical moment of presidential election. I believe many voters will give their vital support to Obama by voting on the web and giving their donation to him no matter it’s big or small. It’s like election information explosion on the webpage of Obama’s website, and the influence is overwhelming to all visitors. Studying the functions of campaign websites, now I’m fully convinced that the functions of candidate website can never be ignored by presidential candidates because many people, especially young people treat web as the most important means of getting information about the world. No doubt, they will visit candidates’ website to keep themselves updated about the latest about the election.
