After multiple attempts at chasing a story at Our Lady of Pompei, various senior residence polling places, Circuit City and Starbuck's... I was turned down enough times to want to throw in the towel.
Paloma and I eventually landed on the popular story of the polling places on campus that were moved. We visited Schine, Goldstein and the Drumlins Country Club. We interviewed a few student voters and asked them what they thought of the change and how it affected them.
My story could be improved if I got an official for an interview. It was also difficult to tell the story and include all the HAVA (Help America Vote Act) information such as regulations and requirements as well as personal anecdotes about voting from students. There was too much information and it was difficult for me to pick and choose what was important enough to tell my audience.
