LaDena Bolton, who is running for a commissioner position – a local government role – here in DeKalb County, Georgia, believes Harris’ rally Thursday night was a wise strategic move.

He said speakers like Hollywood luminaries Samuel L. Jackson, Spike Lee and Tyler Perry, as well as Barack Obama himself, were the right lineup at the right time.

“I realized it’s targeting black men because there’s been a lot of talk about how they could make or break the race,” Bolton said.

Trump has been aggressively courting these crucial voters. And the timing was right, Bolton said, as it coincided with early voting.

He noted that “there has been voter apathy,” but he was still confident Harris could pull it off.
