00:00And now, 720 days, 88 criminal charges, 34 felony convictions,

00:05four indictments, two Democratic opponents, and one garbage truck later, here we are.

00:10Election day.

00:11Late night hosts are sharing their final messages and closing arguments ahead of election night.

00:16Over on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Kimmel urged viewers to move on already from Donald Trump.

00:21Imagine a world in which you wake up in the morning,

00:24you check the news, and no one says the words Donald or Trump.

00:27Just a bunch of normal.

00:31No arguing with your grandfather.

00:33You check the sports.

00:34Al Roker does the weather.

00:36Off to work you go.

00:37Delivering the message towards the end of his late night monologue,

00:40he likened Trump to a, quote, cancerous polyp.

00:43It feels like the whole country is waiting to get the results of a biopsy.

00:47Let's remove this cancerous polyp from our collective national colon and move on already.

00:53And don't forget to vote.

00:54Meanwhile, Stephen Colbert traveled to Philadelphia for his Election

00:58Eve Late Show interview with Tim Walz, where the high school football coach

01:02turned vice presidential candidate gave America a final pep talk ahead of Tuesday.

01:06Colbert asked Walz about his highs and lows of the campaign trail

01:10and if he was surprised by the tied election polls.

01:13It disappoints me, I think, because I think that the choice is so stark,

01:17but it's not surprising.

01:18The country's really divided.

01:19The segment ended with Walz's pep talk.

01:21We know that we're in the final two minutes of this game.

01:23We're going to give 110 percent.

01:27We know we have to leave it on the field because, look, democracy's at stake here.

01:31Colbert also chatted with John Oliver, playing a 2015 late show clip of Oliver saying

01:36he didn't care about Donald Trump announcing his first run for president.

01:402016 came and it has never left.

01:43We have been in the 2016 news cycle for eight years now.

01:48Elsewhere, Oliver made his own final election day plea to viewers

01:51on his own show for last week tonight.

01:53If Donald Trump loses this election, he's basically finished.

01:57I know, I know he'll put us through hell.

02:00He'll put us through hell before he left the stage.

02:03But when the dust settled, he'd have lost two elections in a row

02:07and we would be campaigning as an 82 year old next time.

02:10I think he'd be done.

02:12And doesn't that sound great?
