MTV’s army of Street Team ’08 citizen journalists will cover the youth vote like no one else on Super Tuesday, delivering the first-ever live mobile-to-web broadcasts – from polling stations, caucuses, candidate rallies and everywhere young voters congregate February 5th.

The real time, on-the-spot reports will be streamed live all day from correspondents’ video-equipped mobile phones to MTVNews.com and ChooseorLose.com.

Throughout the day, MTV will regularly break into programming and showcase news featurettes excerpted from the live reports.

The effort is part of MTV’s constantly evolving, Emmy-winning “ChooseorLose.com” campaign and will offer the network’s citizen journalists an unprecedented stage – with the potential to reach as many as 100 million viewers – as they bring all the Super Tuesday action to America’s youth as it happens.
