Oprah then recalled John F. Kennedy’s iconic 1961 speech: “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country,” before imploring those who had not yet voted to do so on election day. . “We can’t stay out of this,” Oprah said. “Deciding not to decide… is definitely a vote to let other people control your future.”

“We’re voting for values ​​and integrity,” Oprah added toward the end of the impassioned speech, just before introducing Harris. “We are voting for healing over hate.”

Both events are part of a broader effort to mobilize support in the seven battleground states: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. The Harris-Walz campaign livestreamed each of the rallies to attract more voters and allow for virtual participation across the country. Harris has been actively campaigning in these swing states, including holding rallies in Wisconsin and Atlanta that featured performances by artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Mumford & Sons, and Cardi B.

In the Democratic National Committee last AugustOprah talked about “the best of America” and why she will vote for Harris. “Common sense tells us that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz can give us decency and respect,” he said at the convention. We also can’t forget the iconic talk show-style meeting she and Vice President Harris had in September, called United for America—which brought together more than 140 of Harris’ grassroots support groups.
