Front Page Newspaper Election Images



Take a look at the newspapers in cities across the USA and write which one is best in terms of telling the story about today's election. I've added a bit of humor and harsh photographic commentary to open your election eye.

Montgomery, AL Red, white and blue voting stickers that say "I voted," and that look like open condom packages.

Phoenix, AZ Low quality pic of Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Jim Pederson and wife

Tucson Citizen Precinct 216 at the Tucson Arizona Boys Chorus office with too much clutter.

LA Times
the LA mayor shaking an unknown man's hand blocking gov candidate Angelides at a diner (the blocking handshake's got to represent a pretty ex-bodybuilder.

Denver Post nice curves of concrete patio under dogs watching a line of voters (go figure?)

Miami Herald lady in red getting a sticker put on her lapel

Atlanta Journal-Constitution bored boy touching a flipped bottom lip while mom votes--nice composition, but it doesn't look like an election image.

Chicago Tribune pic of an alternative paper ballot

Times Picayune
Asian American woman studies ballot at elementary school. Nice composition and content for such a drab subject of voting options.

Billings Gazette
text and image voting scene that could be an ad in a campaign TV ad

NY Times
How do you spell bore? An image of the candidate for the State Comptroller race in front of blue drapes of a voting booth.

Philedelphia Daily News
this one's a winner, a little girl sitting under a voter and seen at the bottom of the frame from under the closed curtains inside a voting booth

Dallas Morning News
superstar-like gubernatorial candidate Chris Bell among a pack of camera's walking away from the voting booth, nicely framed and balanced--a real narrative here of one very tall-looking man.
