Tons of Celebrities Are Coming Together for ABC’s Vote or Miss Out Special
ABC is raising awareness for the upcoming presidential election by airing a new comedy special, VOMO: Vote or Miss Out.
The one-hour special will encourage those to vote by featuring a wide range of artists, activists, and comedians. The performances will include musical numbers, comedy pieces, and stand-up acts, while also informing audiences on the changes in the voting process this year due to COVID-19.
There’s no time to waste in the lead-up to this election. I’m counting on all of you to help your communities get registered and ready to vote this fall.
Join me and @WhenWeAllVote this Thursday, 9/3 to learn how to get involved. I hope to see you there: https://t.co/gToY2gr0fl https://t.co/vc9fnXcnYI
