MTV, along with the Knight Foundation and Associated Press will be sponsoring 51 citizen Journalists, one in each state and one in the District, to cover the ‘08 Election. I’ll be holding down the fort in DC for MTV while submitting (hopefully) some kick ass stories.

For more information about the program, the sponsors and MTV’s ultimate goal, check out this press release. If you want to sign up for an account on Think.MTV.com (and you should…) follow this link. Or, just watch this short video I put together last night. I can’t help but grin. It’s a great moment to enjoy while realizing there’s a lot of work ahead.
