VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!

Time to perform your civil duty. Record voter turnout is expected in California today.

A record 13.6 million California voters are expected to cast ballots in today's election, a 78.9 percent turnout that would be the largest in more than three decades, a new Field Poll predicted.

The presidential race between Democrat Barack Obama and Republican John McCain is attracting most of the attention, but a dozen statewide ballot measures, topped by a proposed ban on same-sex marriage, also are boosting turnout.

"That's over a million more voters than we had in 2004, which was the previous record," said Mark DiCamillo, the poll's director. "This is representative democracy in action."

Throughout California, nearly 3.8 million of the state's registered 17.3 million voters had cast ballots by mail or at early voting sites as of Friday. That's a 22 percent turnout, and hundreds of thousands of early ballots are still to be counted. About 53 percent of this year's votes are expected to be cast at the polls today. [SFGate]

Will Ferrell Returns to SNL

Last night's Saturday Night Live election special featured Will Ferrell returning to play George W. Bush as he gives his endorsement for McCain/Palin. As you can probably guess Tina Fey was also there to play Sarah Palin and Darrell Hammond played John McCain.

Ferrell reprised his famed impression of the president on the live "Weekend Update" special Thursday to give an "impromptu" evening address to the nation. He spoke about the election between John McCain and Barack Obama — both candidates, he said, that are "heavily patriotized" and "display much characterization."

He then gave his endorsement to McCain and Palin, something that they apparently didn't want. Ferrell said he was unaware that his approval ratings were low because he had several months ago declared the Oval Office a "bummer free zone." [AP]
