CHRIS KLEIN (Paul Metzler) makes his professional acting debut in "Election." Born in Chicago, Klein moved to Omaha at the age of thirteen. While the 19-year-old did not run for student council office in high school, he did excel as an outside linebacker for his football team and starred in several school stage productions, including the role of Tony in "West Side Story." |

| It was during his senior year at Millard West High School in Omaha that he literally bumped into director Alexander Payne as he was scouting Klein's high school as a possible location for "Election." After an audition for Payne, and only four weeks into his first semester at Texas Christian University where he is studying dramatic arts, Klein received the offer to star in "Election." Shortly after, Klein landed his next role in the upcoming feature film "American Pie" (Ria's note: American Pie was already shown in the Philippines while Election is already available in video). | ||||||||||||||||||||||
