For her part, Chelsea Clinton said her mother’s candidacy is focused on continuing her life’s unfinished business.

Your Local Election Headquarters was in Scranton as former first daughter Chelsea Clinton held a rally in support of her mother.

If there is anything at all I can ever do for you, please don’t hesitate to ask, my friend.

As a mother herself now, Chelsea talked about her own mom, Hillary Clinton, and took a veiled shot at Donald Trump saying she never thought she’d nearly see the “normalization of hate speech” during this campaign.

And the presumption that African Americans and Latinos are more culpable of a crime because of the color of their skin makes her campaign pitch to Black Lives Matter activists -where prison reform is a key tenet of their platform – ring hollow. “But, I think that it’s just another time for us go out and show support”, said Florida resident Grace Messina. She is also seen as the best character witness her mother has.

“I haven’t talked to my mother about how she plans to observe the day”, Clinton said.

Her mother served as a legal aid lawyer and fought for increased early childhood and public education funding and access to credit for struggling farmers, she said. She pointed out her mother’s vice presidential running mate, U.S. Sen. “I hope that all of you will talk to as many people as you can on the on the phones, in your classes, and on the streets”.

“What am I supposed to do if I don’t like him and I don’t trust her?” a millennial black woman in OH asked.

With the Trump Truck in the background, one man even brought a life-size cutout of Hillary Clinton wearing a dollar sign necklace.

“I was a little nervous at first”, Harvey said about calling households on behalf of the campaign. Others stood for hours to protest the Clinton family. “I wouldn’t be standing here today if it weren’t for seeing Hillary Clinton speak in 2008”, Purcell said.

Anyone interested in attending must RSVP for the event.

She also addressed her mother’s support for abortion rights in a region where many Democrats still oppose abortion.
