With the presidential election less than a week away, candidates are bombarding us from all angles with ads, debates and last-minute pushes to secure votes. (Their efforts are pretty much pointless considering we joined The Pizza Party a while back, but that's besides the point.) In all seriousness, all this presidential hoopla can be a little overwhelming and upsetting at times. This is especiall

Over the last few electoral cycles, we've heard more and more about early voting. And we should be: the voting option is becoming more and more popular, reaching new levels of participation this year.

Big & Rich and Alabama frontman Randy Owen's rendition of 'America the Beautiful' may not have been a vocal masterpiece, but the country crooners were able to get Mitt Romney supporters on their feet this week. Joined by classic rock singer Meat Loaf, the group's collective performance of the patriotic tune followed a political support rally for the Presidential Republican candidate at an Ohio

Politics is on the mind of many people this time of year but one California community is taking their civic duty to new heights, with voter turnout for a recent local election hitting record levels. The reason? Free weed.

While everyone else was sitting around making jokes about horses and bayonets, the 'Autotune the News' folks were working hard to turn Monday night's debate into a song. This is what they came up with.

The third and final presidential debate was Monday night, and like millions of Americans, many of country music's biggest stars watched and reacted. A few got fired up about claims made by both presidential candidates, while others -- like Brad Paisley -- cracked a few jokes to followers on Twitter.

Tonight in Boca Raton, Florida, President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney sat down for their third and final debate before the upcoming election. Bob Schieffer of CBS News was the moderator. The debate's focus was foreign policy. Here are some noteworthy moments from the discussion: This time, like in the first debate, Obama wore a blue tie and Romney a red one...

No matter what happens on November 6, it looks like Vice President Joe Biden will be a winner... of a vintage Pontiac Trans Am, that is.

It's that time of year: election season. Amidst debates, early voting and an onslaught of news reports about the presidential candidates, celebrities are choosing sides and Kelly Clarkson is among them. As an open supporter of gay marriage, the pop singer has gone on record saying that she'll vote for President Barack Obama on Nov. 6.

If you are one of the many people still scraping off your TV after Tuesday’s presidential-debate mud-slinging, then perhaps it is time for you to take a "poo-litical” stand and invest in some presidential poop bags. To help you out with obtaining such novel effects is the Fort Worth, Texas-based company Therapoo, which has just released an arsenal of dog-poop bags branded with the cartoon mug

Do you remember Ross Perot? He’s the Texas billionaire that ran for president in 1992 and 1996 and has been out of the political spotlight since. He has come forward and endorsed Mitt Romney for the presidency, saying the U.S. is on an unstable course under our current leadership. In 1992, Perot ran one of the most successful third party campaigns in history when he ran against then president Geor

As much as we would like to believe that the world revolves around sports, there are other issues at hand. The 2012 presidential election might even be bigger than the baseball playoffs. Might.

On boy, that was an uncomfortable moment last night when Mitt Romney bragged about having "binders full of women." We wonder if he instantly knew, as we did, that was a creepy-sounding thing to say, and soon there would be memes, memes EVERYWHERE!

The second presidential debate between Barack Obama and Mitt Romney got started just after 9 o'clock from the campus of Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York. The town-hall-style debate, with an audience of uncommitted voters selected by Gallup, was moderated by CNN's Candy Crowley...

Politicians work really hard, and can work up quite an appetite! Since it's rare that they find time to sit down and review their culinary experiences on Yelp!, we thought we'd help them out. Check out these weird pictures of politicians eating, with some real quotes (in bold) that we turned into Yelp! reviews.

Much like the presidential debate from last week, the debate between vice president Joe Biden and Paul Ryan has also received the ol' autotune treatment. Unlike the presidential debate song, which was frankly a little creepy -- this one is pretty funny...
