2019. February 20. 13:25
Berlin, Germany, 20 february, 2019 (APA/OTS) - From May 23 to 26,
some 400 million people in 27 EU member countries can take an
active part in shaping the future of the European Union and cast
their votes in the European elections. On assignment from the
European Parliament, the dpa subsidiary news aktuell, under the
press portal URL http://EUrVOTE.eu, in the weeks ahead will be
making information packages for use by the media available free of
charge. The spot news, background reports and interactive graphics
were produced by dpa-Custom Content and can be used by the media
for their news coverage.
Why is the EU important and how does it affect its citizens?
EUrVOTE provides answers. Starting with the first themed packages
in February, the offering will be expanded with new content at
regular intervals through May. Each package consists of dpa texts
and photos, accompanied by interactive graphics from dpa-infocom
that illustrate specific issues and aspects and offer vital added
value to editorial staffs.
Elections in figures: In the run-up to the European elections
the service will be expanded with a number of elements from
dpa-ElectionsLive with opinion surveys from all EU member states.
As soon as the first vote projections appear, the widgets will show
all the results from the individual member states and the
distribution of seats in the new EU Parliament. dpa-ElectionsLive
visually illustrates the latest data in real time. Media may
likewise incorporate this content in their internet services.
