Election Day, November 8th, is here people! Americans are flocking to the polls to cast their ballots for the next U.S. President.

Monday night, Hillary held a last-minute rally at Independence Mall in Philadelphia, for a crowd of around 20,000 people. Hillary was joined by her husband Bill Clinton, the Obamas, Bruce Springsteen, and Jon Bon Jovi. Bon Jovi performed a live set for the rally crowd, including The Beatles’ “Here Comes The Sun.” Bon Jovi then addressed the audience, saying, “I am voting for someone who sees my nieces as future leaders, and not objects to be rated.”
Next up, Springsteen performed his three songs, "Thunder Road," "Dancing in the Dark" and "Long Walk Home." Springsteen had some choice words for Donald Trump: “This is a man whose vision is limited to little beyond himself, who has the profound lack of decency that would allow him to prioritize his own interests and ego before American democracy itself. Somebody who would be willing to damage our long-cherished and admired system rather than look to himself for the reasons behind his own epic failure. And that's unforgivable. Tomorrow, those ideas and that campaign is going down.”
Springsteen finished with, “Let's all do our part so we can look back on 2016 and say we stood with Hillary Clinton on the right side of history. That's why I'm standing here with you tonight, for the dream of a better America.”

Hillary also had some last-minute campaign help from Madonna. The hugely famous singer took it upon herself to perform a surprise, acoustic concert in New York City’s Washington Square Park Monday night. She sang, “Express Yourself,” “Like A Prayer,” and John Lennons’ “Imagine.” After the performance, Madonna implored the audience to vote, saying, “Please come out tomorrow. Vote with your heart, vote with your mind, vote with your spirit, vote with your soul. Save this country, please. Vote for Hillary Rodham Clinton!”
