Though Sean Astin is filming "Demoted" in Michigan this month, he's hoping Barack Obama gets promoted to President on November 4.

According to The Livingston Daily, the actor took time out on Saturday to speak to a group of Obama volunteers in Livingston County.

"He helped kick off a canvass that we were doing for the Democratic ticket," said Judy Daubenmier, party chairwoman.

The actor was out and about again on Sunday when he made a stop at Kettering University in Flint. He spent time on campus urging students to vote.

At a Hillary Clinton rally this spring, Astin had vowed he would become a staunch Obama supporter if Clinton lost the nomination. Glad to see someone in Hollywood is a man of their word!
