We are officially 58 days away from the presidential elections of November 4. The candidates are ready to enter the ring fully armed with celebrities. And that’s exactly what the Obama camp is doing this Thursday.
Actor Marlon Wayans (Scary Movie, White Chicks), actress Tatyana Ali ("The Fresh Prince of Bel Air") and actress Jurnee Smollett (The Great Debaters and "Grey’s Anatomy") will be at Obama’s office on the Corner, next to Just Curry on Wertland Street, to encourage students and residents to register and vote between 12pm to 1:30pm.
According to today’s Washington Post-ABC News poll, Obama’s lead against McCain has slimmed to one point.

Barack Obama is reportedly trailing John McCain in national polls. CNN also reports that Obama is ahead of McCain in electoral votes.
