Get informed before heading to the polls with Google Trends

What a great resource this is for American History and Government classes ...  Google Trends!  From Google's official blog: 

"To help people get informed before heading to the polls, we’re integrating three new components into the debate: a way to hear directly from candidates on Google; real-time Google Trends data; and questions from some of YouTube’s most prominent voices.
