Clinton, Trump Crisscross Nation Ahead of Election Day

HeadlineNov 07, 2016

On the campaign trail, Hillary Clinton enlisted some of the biggest names in show business to get out the vote. Superstar Beyoncé performed at a rally in Cleveland after her husband Jay Z introduced Clinton.

Jay Z: “This other guy, I don’t have any ill will towards him, but his conversation is divisive, and that’s not an evolved soul to me, so he cannot be my president. He cannot be our president. Once you divide us, you weaken us. We’re stronger together. Once you divide us, you weaken us. We are stronger together. And without further ado, I would like to introduce to you the next president of the United States, Ms. Hillary Clinton.”

Clinton returns to campaign in Michigan today to follow up on a Friday evening campaign stop in Detroit. Both first lady Michelle Obama and President Barack Obama are campaigning in swing states and will join Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi for a concert tonight in Philadelphia with the Clinton family. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is pushing ahead with campaign events in Florida, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire. In Wisconsin, Trump’s campaign canceled an event near Milwaukee Sunday mere seconds after House Speaker Paul Ryan said he would take to the stage to support Trump there. A Trump campaign spokesperson said the cancellation was due to a “scheduling conflict.”
