David Letterman�s Worldwide Pants production banner is spearheading an untitled feature documentary about young adults running for public office. The doc will follow five men and women ages 18-20 who are seeking elected posts in a range of states, including New Jersey and Tennessee.

The film is the first docu and the first noncomedy project for Worldwide Pants. Doc will be directed by Michael Moore�s former assistant Jason Pollock, and �An Inconvenient Truth� producer Lawrence Bender is attached to produce.

The candidates include Ytit Chauhan, 18, a first-generation Indian-American running for city council in Atlantic City, N.J.; and George Monger, 18, who successfully appealed to lower the Memphis voting age from 23 so that he could run for city council.

In announcing the project, Letterman said he admired the ambition demonstrated by the film�s subjects.

�When I was their age, I was still delivering papers on a paper route, and I wasn�t even very good at that,� he quipped.
