Liza Koshy, Rita Wilson, & More

With Election Day quickly approaching, Michelle Obama has doubled down on her commitment to increasing voter turnout, revealing her “voting squad,” which is made up of high-profile celebrities, in a powerful call to action.

On Instagram, the former first lady shared a lineup of influential figures, including Kelly Rowland, Liza Koshy, and Kerry Washington, encouraging citizens to exercise their right to vote in the upcoming election.

“This is my #VotingSquad — now I want you to tag yours!” she wrote alongside a group photo featuring Kerry Washington, Liza Koshy, Rita Wilson, Shonda Rhimes, Kelly Rowland, Victoria Monét, Jurnee Smollett, and more.

With Election Day just days away, Michelle reminded her followers to check in with their friends and ensure they have a voting plan. “In 2020, some races were decided by only six votes. That’s your group chat!” she noted, underscoring the power of every vote.

Her post comes just one day before she prepares to team up with musician and activist Alicia Keys in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, for a major get-out-the-vote event focused on energizing voters ahead of Election Day.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama is set to visit the Philadelphia suburbs on Saturday, November 2, rallying support for Vice President Kamala Harris just three days before the 2024 election.

While Harris won’t be present at the event, she’ll be leading rallies in two other battleground states, appearing in Atlanta and Charlotte, N.C.

Michelle will instead be joined by music icon and activist Alicia Keys, who campaigned with Harris in 2020 and has long been a vocal advocate, including her high-profile protests against former President Donald Trump’s migration policies in 2018.

Together, Obama and Keys aim to motivate Pennsylvania voters, underscoring voter turnout’s importance in this crucial election.

Michelle and Barack Obama delivered powerful endorsements for Harris in August at the Democratic National Convention, rallying party supporters nationwide to turn out and vote in November to unseat Trump.

Speaking to a crowd in Chicago, Mrs. Obama declared, “Hope is making a comeback,” echoing her husband’s famed promise of “hope and change” from his own presidential campaigns.

In their consecutive speeches, the Obamas praised Harris’s leadership while sharply criticizing Trump’s presidency, which Mr. Obama described as marked by “bluster and chaos.”

“Make no mistake, it will be a fight,” the former president said, per BBC, as Michelle chimed in, “We need to vote in numbers that erase any doubt. We need to overwhelm any effort to suppress us.”

Shortly after Joe Biden announced his exit from the 2024 Presidential election, former President Obama and former First Lady Michelle formally endorsed Vice President Harris’s presidential campaign in a video.

“Michelle and I couldn’t be prouder to endorse you and to do everything we can to get you through this election and into the Oval Office,” Barack told Harris on a phone call joined by his wife.

“I can’t have this phone call without saying to my girl, Kamala, I am proud of you. This is going to be historic,” Michelle added.

Harris expressed her heartfelt thanks to the Obamas for their support, sharing her gratitude for their friendship, which has spanned decades.

“Oh my goodness. Michelle, Barack, this means so much to me. I’m looking forward to doing this with the two of you, Doug and I both. And getting out there, being on the road,” the vice president said. “But most of all, I just want to tell you the words you have spoken and the friendship that you have given over all these years mean more than I can express, so thank you both. It means so much. And we’re gonna have some fun with this too, aren’t we?”
