The Election Central hub on Xfinity X1

Xfinity lanza una experiencia de noticias electorales interactiva, personalizada y bilingüe por X1 y Flex

4 months ago

Desde marzo, la audiencia de noticias en las plataformas de Xfinity ha aumentado en un 38% comparado con el mismo período del año pasado. Por tanto, Xfinity ha hecho aún más fácil para sus usuarios el acceso a información relacionada con las elecciones a través del menú virtual Election Central, disponible en X1 y Flex.

Election Central entrega a los usuarios la información más reciente de las votaciones en sus estados a través del Control Remoto por Voz de Xfinity y pone a su disposición las últimas noticias y acontecimientos electorales en un solo lugar, tanto en inglés como en español.

Además, los clientes de X1 y Flex pueden decir “Cómo votar” en el Control Remoto por Voz de Xfinity para encontrar información general sobre la votación, cómo registrarse, cómo votar e información de las postulaciones clave del 2020. Y por primera vez, al seleccionar la ventana que dice “Información para votar”, los clientes podrán ingresar su número de teléfono móvil e inmediatamente recibirán un enlace de vote.gov, el sitio web oficial de información para votantes del gobierno de EE. UU. con información sobre cómo votar en su estado.

Para obtener cobertura de noticias electorales en tiempo real, análisis y más, los clientes de X1 y Flex pueden decir “Noticias de las elecciones” en su control remoto por voz de Xfinity y acceder a un destino de contenido seleccionado con programación de más de una docena de redes y servicios de transmisión digital como ABC News, CBS News, Cheddar, CNN, CNN en Español, C-SPAN, Fox Nation, Fox News, iHeartRadio, MSNBC, NBC News, Newsmax, Newsy, NPR, PBS, Telemundo, TYT, Univision, YouTube y más.

A través de Election Central de Xfinity, los clientes de X1 y Flex también pueden encontrar:

  • Cobertura en vivo, On Demand y aspectos destacados de las convenciones nacionales demócratas y republicanas en su canal preferido dentro de “Choose Your News Row”.
  • Momentos históricos de las campañas, incluida la cobertura de las convenciones nacionales demócratas y republicanas que se remontan al 1948, así como documentales y especiales.
  • Episodios On Demand de los programas de asuntos políticos favoritos, incluidos This Week de ABC News, Face the Nation de CBS News, State of the Union de CNN (solo X1), Fox News Sunday y Meet the Press de NBC.
  • Los mejores podcasts de noticias y análisis, incluidos Chuck Toddcast de NBC News, The Ben Shapiro Show, The Daily de The New York Times, The Glenn Beck Program y Up First de NPR.

Independientemente de cómo los votantes decidan ver noticias e informarse, Election Central de Xfinity es el lugar indicado para encontrar diariamente los últimos desarrollos electorales de la cambiante candidatura por la Casa Blanca y de las demás postulaciones.

Public Safety Power Shutoff

Preparing for PSPS Events

Many of us are looking forward to a return to some form of normalcy as we work to rebuild and recover from the public health crisis. Californians are clever, resilient and optimistic people and we will find joy in every season no matter what happens.

While this year will probably feel very different, one thing that will, unfortunately, remain consistent is the threat of wildfires. June 1 was the official start of fire season and at Comcast we are working tirelessly to ensure we continue to serve our customers.

Concurrent with fire season, in many parts of California, we anticipate planned power outages – called Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) – during this time, which runs from June through November. When gusty winds and dry conditions are forecasted, combined with a heightened fire risk, electricity providers pre-emptively turn off the power to protect the public.

Comcast’s Internet, TV and landline telephone services for homes and businesses require commercial power to operate. During a PSPS event, these Comcast services may stop functioning within hours after the commercial power is shut off. Mobile phone service may also be affected by a PSPS event.

Comcast understands this disruption to services is frustrating and has a major impact on people’s lives and businesses. The safety of our communities and employees is our utmost priority and Comcast takes care during PSPS events to ensure public safety.

Comcast also takes care during PSPS events to ensure we’re keeping our customers informed. We’ve sent a letter and an email to our customers with important information about how to keep informed during wildfire season.

You may also see public service announcements on your local news channel reminding you how these power outages may affect your services.

Here are a few things you can do now to be prepared:

  • Confirm your contact information at xfinity.com/myaccount—We will use this information to contact you if we expect a service disruption caused by a planned power outage. You can also use My Account to check if your service has been restored.
  • Comcast Business customers can check their My Account app or the Comcast Business Status Center to get information and valuable updates.
  • Download your favorite shows and movies for offline viewing—With the Xfinity Stream app, you can watch shows and movies offline in case you lose power.
  • Download the Xfinity Connect App to receive Xfinity Voice calls via your mobile phone—Xfinity Voice customers can make and receive calls with their Xfinity phone number using their mobile phone.
  • Visit the Comcast California Blog where we will post information, updates and answers to commonly asked questions. On the blog, we’ve launched a special PSPS web page where you can get additional information.
  • Follow us on Twitter — our handle is @ComcastCA and we regularly post valuable updates.

Even if power is off, Comcast’s team never stops working for you. From our family to yours, we hope you remain safe.
