Sean “P. Diddy”
Combs’ Citizen Change will launch a three-day get out and vote drive in
the nation’s swing states, reminding people to vote in the upcoming November
2nd elections.
The drive kicks
off Tuesday in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Combs will be joined buy such celebrities
as Leonardo DiCaprio and singer Mary J. Blige.
And like the presidential
candidates themselves, Combs will visit the states of Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania
and Florida.
The Citizen Change
rallies take place in the cities of Detroit, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh
and Miami.
Combs said there
are 40 million eligible voters between the ages of 18 and 35, which he says
could be the group that decides the next president.
"To see one
day when (the candidates) talk about the needs and concerns of young people,
we have to make sure that we also put the pressure on them in the swing states
to recognize that these are the people that are going to put them into office,"
Combs told the Associated Press.
"The sleeping
giant has awoken and the forgotten ones, this group of 40 million voters, are
going to be the deciding factor, because their votes have not been counted,"
he added.
