Can we get a Countdown to Vote Clock?

I just realized that the election really isn't that far off. It brightened my day!

DU needs a countdown to vote clock on the front page. Please. Not only will it give us a light at the end of the tunnel, but will also remind us of how much work needs to be done.

Elad? You there?

A General Clock till November 3rd, sure, but also tabs for each state which would include individual states registration dates, election dates including early vote days, mail-in dates etc. etc..

But, I don't want to make the guys work that hard.
That's a lot of upkeep and I barely donate anything per month. Elad would need a hefty raise.
