From Breitbart: What do Democrat elites think will motivate their base in crucial swing states to turn out for Kamala Harris in November? Drag queens and rapper Cardi B, for starters.
Michelle Obama is promising men in dresses and “Wet Ass Pussy” as part of an initiative called “Party at the Polls” — a series of live performances that are set to take place in swing states from now until election day. The goal? To motivate Democrats to cast their vote for Kamala Harris in places where she is losing ground to former President Donald Trump.
In Arizona, where Trump maintains a slight lead over Harris, Michelle Obama’s When We All Vote organization will hold a “Get Out The Vote” drag show in Phoenix on October 18. In Nevada, another show will take place October 29 featuring the performer known as Plasma from RuPaul’s Drag Race.
In Georgia, When We All Vote and Live Nation Urban will bring voters together at ONE Musicfest on October 26 and 27 in Atlanta , featuring Cardi B and a host of other pop stars.
More from The Hill:
The aim of When We All Vote’s program, Party at the Polls, is to “turn the voting experience into a community celebration,” organizers said Thursday. The effort from the nonpartisan organization will include a series of free events with the goal of turning voting “into a celebration with music, food, culture and activities for voters of all ages.”
Some of the lineup in battleground states includes a 5K walk Saturday in Window Rock, Ariz., featuring actor Mark Ruffalo and the Native American advocacy group Protect the Sacred, a “Drag Out The Vote” drag show in Phoenix on Oct. 18 with performer Barbra Seville and another in Las Vegas on Oct. 29 with “RuPaul’s Drag Race” alum Plasma, a series of block parties in Philadelphia on Saturday and Oct. 19, and a two-day concert called ONE Musicfest starting Oct. 26 in Atlanta headlined by Cardi B, Jill Scott, Gunna, Victoria Monét and Earth, Wind & Fire.
Other get-out-the-vote events tied to Party at the Polls include “an evening of food, entertainment, and carnival fun” at North Carolina Central University on Oct. 18, a gospel concert in Atlanta on Oct. 26 and a “Dunk the Vote” community block parties in Nevada and Arizona later this month.
