Election App
The iPhone "Election" application was our first app in the App Store.
The primary goal of this app was to provide a daily snapshot of the 2008 US presidential election.
On Apple's iTunes rankings, the "Election" application soon became the #1 "paid" app in the "News" category.
It was #1 in the (short-term ranking) "top paid apps" listing for News apps and also #1 in the (long-term) "popularity" ranking for paid apps in the "News" category.
Now that the elections are over, the app is a great reference to the 2008 presidential race with poll numbers from September to November, final results, issue-polls and commentary.
