Final Stretch

Tonight is the last debate. You all must watch, because if you do not, there is an ancient gyspy/voodoo/aztec curse that involves feathers and cricket paddles, and much gnashing of teeth. And it will be invoked. And I don't know about you, but me, I prefer not to gnash my teeth. Much.

But just so you go into the debate knowing all there is to know about the current climate, here are the latest polls/election errata from today:

It seems that a few new polls indicate that the election is still very close, with Bush maintaining a slight lead, at least in the electoral college.

Also, remember all that cell-phone stuff? Here is a more recent article on the topic with some new insight. I am also running a related poll on the right side of the page, feel free to add your vote. Also of interest is a more general article detailing why the polls might not be quite as accurate as pollsters would lead you to believe. Of course, if you'd been reading my weblog, you'd be way ahead of all this right?

Lastly, Survey USA has released a poll that details the gender gap this election. Seems that women are leaning towards Kerry.

And I'm leaning towards writing a term paper on why the Russian Formulist school of filmmakers offers more to German Expressionism than the French Avant-Garde. Ahh, college.
