Seth Meyers wasn't afraid to get political on last weekend's edition of WEEKEND UPDATE on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE. Check out the highlights from the skit below!

“WEEKEND UPDATE” ANCHOR Seth Meyers – “This Tuesday was the second Presidential debate. Said President Obama, ‘second?? Oh crap.””

MEYERS – “A new Gallup poll shows that Mitt Romney now has a 7 point lead on President Obama. That's right, Romney leads by 7 points among people who still answer landline calls from a blocked number.”

MEYERS – “Both Republicans and Democrats are saying that Latino voters will decide who wins in three key states, Colorado, Florida and Nevada. Or as the candidates are now calling them Colorado, Florida y Nevada.”

MEYERS – “Reality TV star Honey Boo Boo this week endorsed President Obama during an appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel Show. I knew Obama was pro-birth control, but I didn't know birth control was pro-Obama.”

MEYERS – “During a debate Wednesday between New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and her opponent Wendy Long, moderators asked both women if they had read Fifty Shades of Grey. Even worse, the follow up question was, "...to each other...?"”

MEYERS – “Residents of Brooklyn who live near the new Barclays Center are complaining that large numbers of people have been urinating on the streets and behind buildings after Brooklyn Nets games and also for the last 200 years.”

MEYERS – “New research shows that giving teenage girls HPV vaccinations does not encourage them to have sex. "Then what does?" said teenage boys.”

MEYERS – “A plan has been proposed for a new bridge across the Seine River in Paris that would be made out of trampolines. And the only way that could go wrong is immediately.”

MEYERS – “A professor at the University of New Mexico has developed a dissolvable mouth strip that can relieve the pain caused when a person burns the top of their mouth eating pizza. Finally, a scientific alternative to waiting a minute.”
