Location-Based Web Service Gowalla Lets Politicians Check-In on the Campaign Trail

Gowalla is getting political. You can now show your support to your political candidate of choice with Gowalla’s latest set of campaign and election stamps. Check in at a political rally, town hall or other event and you’ll get a snazzy new passport stamp unique to that event. This new feature even lets you create your own political event in support of a candidate with a distinct badge given to anyone who participates. So, get your smartphones out, hop on that campaign bus or beaten down van and start your cross-country political rally tour.
