With the hangover from the Super Bowl wearing off and many fantasy footballers looking for something else to divert their attention, the country needs look no further than today’s Super Tuesday elections for an outlet. The typical person will be inundated with political commercials and advertisements. The stories will be all over the web. All day coverage on local and cable tv stations will go on into the night. We’ll hear projections, spin, and poll data before, during and after the results coming in from the almost two dozen states casting their ballots. In short, get ready for media overload today.

But if you like to get your news online, you can also get involved today. For example, Newsweek and the Washington Post are heavily betting on online coverage, through webcams, live online chats and more.

If you want to mix fantasy sports and politics, you can check out a site like FantaZsports.com, which has just launched their open beta in time for today’s Super Tuesday elections. According to founder Nick Koustas:

“We really wanted to show the world that we will also cover a wide range of entertainment events, award shows, political events and whatever else our imagination allows,” he says. “We love fantasy games of skill and we will always be known as the place Where Skill Pays.” The premise is that the game is based on being real-time, skill-based, and allow for interactive multiplayer cash tournaments. The legal barrier, however, is that in states that do not allow this type of gambling, the player will just have to play for pride.

Mr. Koustas wants to eventually expand into many sports, according to the press release, but wants to show that their system can handle other types of entertainment just as readily.

This just goes to show that if there is a reality (elections) and you’ve got a fantasy (picking the winners) there’s a game or league to allow you to get involved. You can not only exercise your right to vote, but your ability to test your skills in a fantasy game against others.
