Katy Perry ‘Roars’ In Support Of Hillary Clinton During Philly Performance

Just weeks ago, Pennsylvania seemed like a sure win for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. In the past two weeks, the campaign has focused more and more efforts on the state as Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has increased his efforts to win Pennsylvania.

While a late October poll has shown Clinton ahead of Trump, the New York Times pointed out Trump and Republican Sen. Pat Toomey have voters with a reliable track record of casting their ballot supporting them.

The Democrats efforts to try to win the region and boost how many Democrats turn out to vote culminated with a large rally and concert at the Mann Center in Philadelphia Saturday evening. The star-studded event featured Clinton, pop star Katy Perry, Philadelphia Congressman Bob Brady, New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker, Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, actress Debra Messing and TV producer Shonda Rhimes, who is behind such hits as “Grey Anatomy” and “How To Get Away With Murder.”

The Democrats worked to fill the crowd with younger voters and had the speakers encourage the crowd to vote.

“I love the message: When you get knocked down, as everybody does, what matters is, get back up,”‘ Clinton said while introducing Perry.

“I admire so many things about Hilly C,” Perry said while telling the crowd Clinton would be a “president for all of us.”

Hours before the Philadelphia event, Vice President Joe Biden visited Bristol Borough to encourage supporters to vote from Democrats.

The entire Clinton family along with the Obamas will return to Philadelphia Monday evening. During the concert, the large election eve rally on Independence Mall was announced. Jon Bon Jovi is expected to perform at the event.

The Trump campaign has focused their efforts on Pennsylvania in recent weeks with Mike Pence visting Bensalem, Trump speaking in the middle portion of the state last week and having his daughters headline several Philadelphia area rallies. On Sunday, Trump is set to speak outside Pittsburgh and rally supporters in Scranton on Monday.

On Tuesday night, the efforts of both campaigns will become clear when the votes are tallied.
