//STEP 1: Configure the countdown-to date, in the format year, month, day, hour(0=midnight,23=11pm), minutes, seconds:
setcountdown(2007,11,24,00,00,00)

//STEP 2: Change the two text below to reflect the occasion, and message to display on that occasion, respectively
var occasion=""
var message_on_occasion="Election Dayt"
