Obama Releases Election Day Video, Says 'It's Gonna Be Close'

Former President Barack Obama released a new video Tuesday telling Americans that “this election is almost here.”

“In some states, just a handful of votes in each precinct could decide the winner. So you have to go out and vote,” Obama said in an Election Day message posted on X.

“So tell your family, talk to your neighbors, make a plan – go to the polls with your friends and vote. Vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz,” Obama added.

His comments came after Michelle Obama warned Americans to “vote like their lives depend on it.”

“We are running out of time to have an impact on this election – so if you're feeling anxious or concerned, get out there and do something!” she added.

Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris also posted messages on her X accounts urging Americans to go to the polls.

“TODAY is our last chance to defeat the corrupt establishment. GET OUT AND VOTE!” Trump said in a message.

“Voter enthusiasm is through the roof because people want to make America great again. That means the lines will be long!” Trump said in another. “You must cast your vote, no matter how long it takes. Stay in line! The Radical Communist Democrats want you to pack your things and go home.”
