Election season's stretch run is on

November 6, Election Day, is less than two weeks away.

For me it's sort of a frightening thought because there's so much left to do in a short period of time.

For newspapers, election season is unquestionably the busiest time of year. Candidates are constantly coming to and going from the building. Phones ring throughout the day from campaigns trying to pitch stories or share tips. Large batches of letters to the editor arrive every day. The advertisement department is also selling plenty of political ads these days.
