R&B Crooner John Legend was in the battleground state of Ohio this past Sunday encouraging early voters to re-elect President Obama.
The award-winning singer-songwriter walked passed what appeared to be a long line of voters, shaking hands and greeting fans. He had tweeted earlier that day that he would be in Cleveland supporting Obama’s get out the vote efforts.
He also spoke to a room full of early voters saying, “Our mission is to make sure we re-elect President Obama, we re-elect Sherrod Brown back to the Senate, we gotta have folks all throughout Washington who are looking out for our interests.”
He then led the group into a few bars of the Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes classic, Wake Up Everybody, which was featured on his 2010 album with The Roots.
