TODAY IS: Election Day in the United States, held annually on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November -- this year, only some state and local offices are up for grabs. Political ambition and ethics are the objects of wicked satire in 1999's ELECTION, in which Matthew Broderick's high-school teacher does all he can to thwart a student he dislikes -- played by Reese Witherspoon -- from winning the student presidency.
