In a livestreamed town hall event in Michigan, Oprah Winfrey and other A-list celebrities showed their support for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. The event, called “Unite for America,” aimed to energize Harris’ base and attract undecided voters. During the 90-minute event, Harris and Winfrey discussed unity, commonality among Americans, and the importance of the upcoming election.
Numerous celebrities, including Bryan Cranston, Julia Roberts, and Jennifer Lopez, joined the event remotely to lend their support to Harris. The event highlighted the star power that has backed Harris’s campaign, contrasting with the celebrity support for former President Donald Trump.
The town hall included emotional moments as voters asked Harris questions about gun control, the economy, abortion, and the recent school shootings. Harris shared her stance on gun control, emphasizing the need for stronger background checks and a ban on assault weapons while also expressing her belief in the Second Amendment.
Winfrey concluded the event by reaching out to independent voters and those who are undecided, urging them to support Harris in the election. She highlighted the need for unity, decency, and a rejection of division and misinformation in today’s political climate.
The event underscored the growing momentum of Harris’ campaign, as she has seen a surge in national and battleground state polls in recent weeks. Despite the positive reception, the campaign chair emphasized that the race is still closely contested, particularly in critical states like Michigan.
