The media’s coverage of congressional elections often focuses on which candidate

The media’s coverage of congressional elections often focuses on which candidate is ahead in that day’s polling, which political scientists refer to as “horse-race coverage.” This type of news coverage tends to favor polling numbers and the drama of the campaign over substantive issues. Develop an argument as to whether horse-race coverage has had a positive or negative impact on Congressional campaigns.

Use at least one piece of evidence from one of the following foundational documents:

• The First Amendment

Support your claim with at least TWO pieces of specific and relevant evidence.

One piece of evidence must come from one of the foundational documents listed above.
A second piece of evidence can come from any other foundational document not used as your first piece of evidence, or it may be from your knowledge of course concepts.
