LESS THAN 200 PEOPLE ATTEND STEVIE WONDER’S PRO-OBAMA APPEARANCE IN CLEVELAND THIS MORNING
Cleveland Plain-Dealer:
Legendary performer Stevie Wonder this morning expressed his love for Cleveland during a get-out-the-vote rally at Cleveland State University.
His love went largely unrequited.
Fewer than 200 people showed up to watch Wonder perform a handful of his hits at the early voting event in support of President Barack Obama.
Most of the people had learned of the event just hours before the 9:30 a.m. start time. Some just happened to be in the area and followed the live music.
"I do a song. You go vote. You come back. We do some more music," he said before opening with "Sir Duke."
No one left to vote after the first -- or any -- song.
A shuttle meant to take voters to the nearby Cuyahoga County Board of Elections left empty after Wonder's final song, "Superstition."
Obama for America Ohio, which hosted the rally, informed its nearly 34,000 followers on Twitter about the event around 10 a.m.
"Perhaps it wasn't advertised properly, but the people who are here are fired up," said Bill Milhoan, of Mentor.
Lee Stranahan tweets, “More people are saying they are going to vote for Obama than will actually vote for him. Just watch. This will be consistent on Tuesday.”
It’s stories like the one above — and similar reports such as this — that add support to that prediction.
