With the 2020 election less than a week away, more celebrities are utilizing the power of social media to urge their followers to cast their votes. From Michelle Obama implementing her viral #WhenWeAllVote campaign to actively help Americans make early voting plans, to America Ferrera assisting first-time voters in marking their ballots—we are inspired!
