Elections aren't just about who votes, it's also about who doesn't vote

On September 28th Michelle Obama held two events in Pennsylvania. She campaigns for presidential candidate Hillary Clinton. One was a rally in Philadelphia, La Salle University, the other one in Pittsburgh at the Peterson Events Center.
First lady attacked Donald Trump and the way he behaves according to his character and how he expressed himself in debates on Monday about being “smart” not paying taxes. She did not mention his name, but she outlined Trump’s “erratic” behavior and being birther. [1]
She prompted new people to vote for Clinton even if she is not “the perfect candidate”.
"Experience matters. Preparation matters. Temperament matters. Hillary Clinton has it all. She's the real deal," Obama told a rally at La Salle University in Philadelphia.
Young voters matter the most because of the existing tendency – they are the key for Democrats and older citizens vote for Republicans. Right now Clinton have less support than Obama did with young voters.
"If you vote for someone other than Hillary or don't vote at all, you are helping to elect Hillary's opponent. And the stakes of taking that chance are too high," the first lady said. She added the work Clinton has done to improve education (including reducing the cost of higher education) and expand health care and child care.
