Donald Trump boasts that he doesn’t need stars to fill his venues in the closing days of the presidential race. Maybe so, but the very people Hillary Clinton needs to shore up her campaign — millennials and minorities — appear all too happy to see her with singer Beyoncé and rapper husband Jay Z.
Standing onstage with the stars at a free concert at Cleveland’s Wolstein Center on Friday night, Clinton lavished praise on the celebrity couple and asked the thousands of cheering fans for their votes.
“Please take this energy out with you,” Clinton said. “Help us win Ohio.”
The Democrat’s campaign has hosted a number of free concerts designed to drum up enthusiasm. Rocker Bon Jovi and R&B singer Ne-Yo rallied voters in North Carolina, while singer/actress Jennifer Lopez took the stage in Miami and singer Stevie Wonder was performing in Philadelphia.
On Saturday night, Clinton planned to host a concert with pop star Katy Perry in Philadelphia. The next day, she intends to take the stage with basketball giant LeBron James in Cleveland, and then return Monday night to Philadelphia for a joint rally with President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama, and former President Bill Clinton.
