King was a key part of CNN's innovative "America Votes 2008" coverage of the presidential campaign. He traveled to important early election states to cover and interview major candidates and broke news about campaign developments, including that then-Senator Barack Obama had chosen Sen. Joe Biden as his vice presidential running mate. He pioneered the use of the CNN "multi-touch" board, which allowed him to delve into election data and track delegates like never before for primary election nights.
State of the Union with John King is CNN’s new four-hour Sunday news program that offers a blend of newsmaker interviews, political analysis, national and world affairs, cultural segments, media analysis and commentary. As CNN’s chief national correspondent, King is also responsible for reporting on a range of stories in the United States and around the world. King joined CNN in May 1997 and was appointed chief national correspondent in April 2005. He served as CNN’s senior White House correspondent from 1999 to 2005.
