With the presidential election only six weeks away and the debates still to come, both major parties will be propping up their candidate and disparaging the other side. Both will be offering statistics about their plans, and why their opponent's plan is not good for the country.
While much of what is said during political campaigns makes for good sound bites, how much of it is based in fact?
Factcheck.org, from the Annenburg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania, helps separate political fact from fiction. Factcheck.org is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that checks the accuracy of politicians statements.
The next time you hear something that sounds too good to be true from the campaign trail, go to factcheck.org to see what the truth is.
