It’s election year and things are heating up. High stakes are in the balance today with the primaries in New Hampshire.

OTT News (On The Trail and Over The Top) has been on the scene with live video from the 2016 campaign trail. Bringing an independent voice and new perspective to election coverage during the New Hampshire Primary have been: Alicé Anil (@alice_anil), James Reinl (@jamesreinl), and Doc Stodden (@docstodden).

But that’s not all that’s unique about this election year “pop-up” show. OTT News has been broadcasting live to viewers each afternoon of the Primary using BitTorrent Live’s first mobile app. The team will be covering the results live on Tuesday and in between live broadcasts pre-produced segments will be aired.

BitTorrent Live allows for large audiences to view live video with low latency and without the need for an expensive CDN or pre-provisioning. The technology has been undergoing real world tests with a number of broadcast partners and OTT News is the latest.
