As you know, Michelle Obama is at the forefront of a get out the vote effort that’s described as “nonpartisan” (pause for laughter). The former first lady issued a challenge:
I’m challenging everyone across the country to start a #VotingSquad to get your friends and family ready to vote. That means you, @JanelleMonae, @TomHanks, @FaithHill, @TheTimMcGraw, @CP3 & @Lin_Manuel!
Build your squad & then tag 5 others to do the same! https://t.co/TyUUB9GhTi pic.twitter.com/lO4Goedx8q

Tom Hanks suggested sweetening the deal:
On it! Let’s go! @MichelleObama. Vote. Take your friends! Give em donuts if that will help the turnout! Hanx! https://t.co/tzzQIKWfKh

The Founders are unavailable for comment about people who would only be interested in voting because of a free donut.
