First lady Michelle Obama has promoted voting in all kinds of settings -- now including a comedy skit.
Obama's appearance on Jimmy Kimmel's talk show last night featured a video built around the idea that Kimmel might forget to vote on Election Day.
"I have a plan for that, Jimmy," she told the host just before the video.
A morning bullhorn is involved.
"It's Election Day!" the first lady yells at a sleeping Kimmel. "Up and at 'em!"
Obama struck a bipartisan note in her appeal for viewers to vote.
"No matter who you're voting for -- vote," she said. "That's the point."
