They're not "getting rid of pixels," since you'll still have pixels on your monitor and your graphics card will still buffer what it's drawing to the screen.
Vector monitors to the rescue!
And since this is only for a video format, we'll also need to bring back Display Postscript for our user interface elements!
When I beg my coworkers, friends and family to vote, I'm not telling them who to vote for nor do I want to know afterwards. I only ask them to inform themselves and hit the booths on November 6th. How is Google's tool any different than that?
It's the same, but on a larger scale. Though your coworkers, friends, and family may not vote the same way as you, because you share some part of your life with them, they are more likely to vote as you do than not to. So by encouraging them to vote when they might not have done so otherwise, you effectively increase your political power just a little.
The same applies on a larger scale for Google. By providing this information to potential voters, they hope to encourage more voting, and voting by more informed voters. Whether this actually helps Google is not clear to me, but can it influence the election? Certainly.
This is also why there is all the controversy over voter ID laws. Voters without government ID cards are seen as more likely to vote Democratic, so Democrats are trying to prevent these laws from going into effect while Republicans support them.
The USA's population is listed at 3,368,595. I'm not sure what century he's from, but the population of the USA today is slightly over 300 million, not 3 million.
South Africa and South Korea, which appear one after the other in two of the tables, both show populations of 50,586,757. While population data for these countries show this as a plausible population for each of these countries, it's suspicious that they have exactly the same value, specified to a precision of 1 person.
Romania and Russia likewise are shown with the same population of 21,390,000. Here this is probably the population for Romania. Russia's population is around 143 million.
I haven't checked for further errors; these are just the ones I noticed were off because they were for my own country or two consecutive countries listed with the same population. Given these inaccuracies, I don't trust this population data at all. Ironically, the errors I noticed actually increase his population totals (assuming the total is the sum of the given numbers, which I also haven't checked) to even higher, more sensational numbers he could have used (more than 400 million higher).
That they even considered doing this shows how little Verizon and Verizon Wireless cooperate. They are two separate companies, alike in name only.
