Amazon has rolled out a range of updates to get Alexa up to date with the 2020 US election. The assistant can help out with debate recaps, local polling information, and more.

Before the update arrived, Amazon said Alexa has already answered millions of questions on politics since the start of 2020. Amazon says Alexa's general knowledge (known as the assistant's fact base) has grown 20-fold over the past five years.
To ensure Alexa's election information is accurate and up-to-date (something we haven't always been able to say about the assistant), Amazon is working with the Associated Press, Ballotpedia, RealClearPolitics and Factca.se to keep its customers informed.
