Here is the excerpt from Comedy Central:

In September, the Socialist Equality Party announced that it is running Jerry White for president, and Bill Van Auken for vice-president. The Socialist Equality Party, and its predecessor organization, the Workers League, placed a presidential candidate on the ballot in some states in 1984, 1988, 1992, 1996, and 2004. However, the party took no steps to get on the ballot in any state in 2008, and it seemed the 2008 campaign was purely symbolic. Now, however, the ticket has filed for write-in status in New York state, so it will get some recorded votes.
On October 29, the Arkansas Democrat Gazette endorsed Richard Carroll for the State House, district 39. Carroll is the Green Party nominee. Here is the editorial.
Vice-presidential candidates Wayne A. Root (Libertarian), Matt Gonzalez (independent, paired with Ralph Nader) and Darrell Castle, have agreed to debate each other in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Sunday, November 2. Rosa Clemente of the Green Party is also invited, but she hasn’t yet said whether she will accept. The debate will be at the Marietta Tiberti Grand Hall, 4505 Maryland Parkway, Las Vegas.
The Pew Research Center released a 4-candidate presidential poll on October 28. Among registered voters, the results are: Obama 52%, McCain 36%, Nader 3%, Barr 1%, other and undecided 8%.
Among the 15% of respondents who say they have already voted, the only results given are Obama 53%, McCain 34%. That leaves 13% unaccounted for, and they couldn’t be “undecided”, since they already voted. See here for all the results.
