Many musicians have offered support for candidates through concerts and videos, but Chance the Rapper did the legwork.
Last night, the rapper led people to early vote in his hometown of Chicago, after a headlining concert in Grant Park. The hashtag #paradetothepolls captured all the action, as Chance and his civically minded fans walked to the polls.
The line to #vote wraps around an entire city block, then @chancetherapper's #paradetothepolls went by and I almost cried. This feels huge. pic.twitter.com/UyYgqa6jvk
