Listen to Michelle Obama: “We’ve got to vote early, in person if we can. We’ve got to request our mail-in ballots right now, tonight, and send them back immediately and follow-up to make sure they’re received. And then, make sure our friends and families do the same”

Your response to being accused of plagiarism is a quote from someone else? Are you trying to rip a hole in time? https://t.co/wiV77M10vY
