Did you have plans for Tuesday? Do they include… voting? They should! In a new Funny or Die video, Rachel Bloom of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend fame, along with a number of people who also look famous, use their platform to remind us all to vote. For Hillary Clinton.

HOLY SH*T (You’ve Got To Vote) from Funny Or Die

As they point out (more cleverly than I’m doing here), they’re not going to be convincing swing voters or Trump supporters. But they very well might be the reminder Clinton supporters need to not just vaguely support her but go out and actually cast our votes.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
