Whether you're left, right, undecided or don't care, the following personalities and journalists will help you to care and find your way to a decision before you vote next month.
Chuck Todd (@Chucktodd)
The moderator of NBC's 'Meet The Press' has great insights to the election. He retweets some of NBC's best coverage of the election, as well as other non-political news stories. He tries to remain unbiased and shows how hard covering this election can be, with a good sense of humor and perspective.
There's more maturity taking place in college football rivalries than in the run up to this debate. Beyond ridiculous.

Brian Stelter (@brianstelter)
The host of CNN's 'Reliable Source's' knows how to utilize Twitter and seems to tweet more than he sleeps. He is more relatable for younger twitter users and retweets some of the best journalists in the field. He also has a Re newsletter that recaps the best news you may not know about from a journalist's perspective.

Jay Rosen (@jayrosen_nyu)
A journalism professor at New York Univeristy, his twitter bio reads, "critique the press," which is exactly what he does. He looks into how the press gives bias too often during this election cycle and how absurd some of the stories are. After the first debate, he has fiercely been showing how "phony" the online polls news sites have been doing are, while they act like they are actual poll numbers.
"If Trump misuses our phony, unrepresentative online poll that's not our problem because we told you it was phony." https://t.co/LO1amFD2tK

Polticial polls are confusing and weird. Some many organizations put out different polls that it can be hard to dicipher the staticitcal information constantly in front of you. Let Nate Silver, editor at FiveThirtyEight guide you through the confusing world of election polls and survery's. You'll be better informed and might actually know what people are talking about after.
Starting to get some high-quality state polls. They suggest Clinton's in a considerably better position post-debate. https://t.co/WLXtJovjYd pic.twitter.com/GZfS1AIQuU

Chrissy Teigen (@chrissytiegen)
How can you not love her? The model has been one of the most hilarious celebrity tweeter's since she live-tweeted her journey down the Oscar's red carpet. She says what you're thinking nine times of out ten. Her brutal honesty and sometimes drunken thoughts will give you life during the next debates. She also really wants Clinton to sink to Trumps level.
i wish she would call him out on his blatant racism, but i guess we are rolling with the "when they go low, we go high" thing.

Andy Cohen (@Andy)
The man behind the 'Real Housewives' treats the debates like the live recap shows. Which makes a lot of sense when you think about it, since its only a matter of time until Trump's toupe gets pulled off and someone knocks the podium down in anger. His comic relifef is needed when your realize how nervous you are for the country's future.
Trump's "there is something bad I was going to say that I'm not going to." was a classic Housewives line, direct quote from #RHONY Reunion!
