The Financial Times has launched US Election Countdown, a new newsletter delivered twice a week that will serve as a guide to one of the most consequential presidential elections in decades.
Led by the FT’s Washington reporter Steff Chávez, the FT says its US Election Countdown will dive into the latest campaign news and polling data, with expert analysis and behind-the-scenes insights from FT journalists across the campaign trail. It will also feature charts from the FT’s data journalism team, with an emphasis on where big donors are putting their cash.
Chávez said: “The US is headed towards an unmissable presidential election, and I'm excited to take readers inside the campaign trail to break down the key plot lines and data points on the candidates, donors, powerbrokers and political action committees fueling it. US Election Countdown will feature the FT’s expert politics and campaign finance coverage, with money being a crucial lens through which to look at the race.”
FT head of newsletters Sarah Ebner said: “The upcoming election is going to have huge ramifications, whatever the result. This newsletter will help provide our readers with the best possible coverage and help guide them through the campaign."
US Election Countdown will be published on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 9am ET.
