Election Day is here, and Google is putting up its final effort to remind people to get to the polls and cast their vote.

Today’s Election Day doodle is an animated GIF of each letter remembering it’s time to vote and running off to stand in line at the voting booth.

Like Sunday’s and yesterday’s US Election Day reminder doodles, today’s doodle leads to a search for “where do I vote” and includes the usual sharing icon.

In the weeks leading up to Election Day, Google has rolled out a number of tools encouraging people to vote, from the state-by-state voting guide and an interactive voter registration tool to the “Where do I vote” tool that helps voters find polling locations.

Later this evening, Google will be showing election results in real time directly in search and will begin airing live Election Day coverage on YouTube from NBC, PBS, MTV, Bloomberg, Telemundo and The Young Turks starting at 7:00 p.m. ET.
