Michelle Obama Is Reportedly Stepping Into 2020 Election And It's Going To Make Trump Very Unhappy [View all]

On Thursday, Michelle Obama took her first concrete step toward being a factor in the 2020 election. Her nonpartisan voting initiative, When We All Vote, which she founded months before the 2018 midterms, announced a coalition of 31 mayors across the country who will be brainstorming and sharing lessons and practices about how to increase voter registration and civic engagement.

Mrs. Obama pointed out in a Zoom call with her coalition that “This pandemic will likely have a significant impact on the November election and on how voters across the country cast their ballots. Already in state and local elections, we’ve seen voters forced to choose between protecting their health and making their voices heard. And that’s absolutely not acceptable.''
