Monday night on NBC’s Last Call with Carson Daly offered up a gaming twist on the presidential election.
Comedian Rich Kuras (who?) of Machinima.com decided to hit the streets to find out what voters were thinking about the election. But not the streets of Maintown, USA — rather, the streets of Ironforge and Orgrimmar.
