Digg The Candidates in 2008!Nov 28 2007 | Social Networks |
Digg recently added a new section to their site called “Digg The Candidates.” What this section basically lets you do is digg which U.S. presidential candidate you think should win the 2008 elections.
You have the ability to support as many candidates as you want but friending someone from both parties makes really no sense at all (you can un-friend them too.) While this page might not be as accurate as some of the polls, it does give a good sense of what candidates diggers support and which they think should lead our country.
The candidates are divided into two lists based on the party they are running for. They are ranked on the amount of people who have added them as friends. And under their names it shows the last story they have made a favorite.
