Michelle Obama to Headline Rally in Atlanta with Celebrities and Civic Leaders Engaging Younger and First-Time Voters
Former first lady Michelle Obama is set to headline a rally in Atlanta on October 29th, just days before the Nov. 5 election. The event, hosted by the nonpartisan civic engagement group When We All Vote, aims to engage younger and first-time voters, as well as voters of color.
With the upcoming election being closely contested, the rally is expected to boost the campaign of Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee. Obama, a well-known figure in the party, has been actively supporting Harris and will likely draw a large crowd at the event.
Celebrities such as Stephen Curry, Jennifer Lopez, and Tom Hanks are expected to attend the rally, along with other civic leaders and influencers. When We All Vote has been hosting events across the country to increase voter registration and turnout, with a focus on engaging underrepresented communities.
The choice of Atlanta as the location for the rally is strategic, given the state’s diversity and the potential impact of a few votes in Georgia. The organization is particularly focused on engaging college students in the metropolitan Atlanta area, emphasizing the importance of every vote in shaping democracy.
As early voting in Georgia ends on Nov. 1, the rally will serve as a final push to encourage voter participation before Election Day. With the goal of bringing energy and momentum to the ballot box, When We All Vote is determined to make sure that every voice is heard in this crucial election.
