According to Betsy Gardella, NHPR's President & CEO, “This app is a long-term investment in our commitment to not only bring our listeners engaging radio programs, but provide them with an interactive experience with up-to-the moment information.”
The State of Democracy app contains information and daily insight analysis into New Hampshire politics, closely following the First in the Nation Presidential Primary. It allows users a quick and convenient way to get in depth coverage and access the information most important to them, including news from the campaign trail, candidate bios and updated finance data, a calendar and maps with information about candidate appearances, an audio feature to listen to relevant sound bites; and the Daily Political Note, an in-app newsletter highlighting the most interesting story of the day.
“At NHPR, we recognize the changing landscape of media and are investing in creating a more robust digital experience for our audience,” said Rebecca Lavoie, NHPR’s Digital Director. “This app is a convenient way political junkies both inside and outside of New Hampshire can access the most up to date, relevant politics coverage, event information, and campaign data in a single place.”
