The ALA Washington Office has put together a table comparing the policy proposals and track records of the two candidates on library issues, including the PATRIOT Act. (PS: It contains nothing directly related to OA. Is that noteworthy but unsurprising, or just unsurprising?)

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
