CNN has launched free mobile apps devoted to coverage of the 2010 midterm elections for the iPhone, Android and BlackBerry platforms.

Dan Butcher reports that the apps will provide a range of election-related information, including details on state races and ballot measures as well as the location of local polling places:

“The applications feature political news through text, video and photos. They also include user-generated content capture and upload functionality through iReport, CNN’s user-generated news community.

“Users can access the latest headlines and video related to the midterm elections, as well as share stories with their friends via email, Facebook and Twitter, all directly from the application.”
