Celebrity Vote Meme
This well-done video featuring the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Courteney Cox, Ellen DeGeneres, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx, Jonah Hill, Dustin Hoffman, Ashton Kutcher, Eva Longoria, Tobey Maguire, Demi Moore, Natalie Portman, Forest Whitaker and other celebs, is sure to be one of the most rapidly deployed viral videos. The non-partison video is aimed at getting more people to vote using the invite 5 friends meme strategy.
At the time of this posting, the video has less than 100k views. I expect it will surge to a million views in short time.
I’m registered to vote, so I’ll pass this along to 5 more who run websites or blogs in the search community:

The combined views of the two versions of the video is now over 840,000. The uncensored version is 3 times more popular than the censored version (though I believe the difference between the two is only a single word).
Didn’t realize I linked to the clean version. Here’s the uncensored version if you’d like to get that extra word in: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vtHwWReGU0

Now looking at around 1.6 million views (about 1 mil for the uncensored version).

Continuing to keep track of views. Now up to 2.5 millions views (1 mill for the censored and 1.5 for the uncensored). Considering the time left to register in most states, this one will probably fizzle out soon.
