On Wednesday, Bill Clinton campaigned in New Jersey on behalf of Hillary Clinton before next Tuesday’s primary. At a Get out the Vote event in Cranford, Bill spoke about Hillary’s experience and the substance of her platform. During his speech at Union County College, he also defended Hillary against a round of personal attacks waged by the Republican Party and Republican nominee Donald Trump. Of the attacks he said, “It threatens their whole argument if you got somebody like Hillary who’s actually done a lot of things to help people. So if you got somebody who’s done a lot of things to help people, you have to find some way to get people to stop thinking about that, and what they find works best is relentless personal attacks.” He wrapped up by asking for voters to support Hillary during Tuesday’s primary. A video from the event will be posted when/if available.

Meanwhile, in New York City, Chelsea Clinton attended a fundraiser on behalf of Hillary for America. In San Francisco, a fundraiser was held and featured a conversation with Senator Kirsten Gillibrand.

On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton returned to the campaign trail where she attended a Get Out the Vote event in Newark, New Jersey. After Clinton was introduced by Senator Cory Booker and singer Jon Bon Jovi, Clinton spoke to the crowd about about a number of her key platform points and the importance of the 2016 election. At the beginning of her speech, she attacked presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump and his controversial Trump University, which is currently in the midst of a legal battle. Clinton said, “Trump U was a fraudulent scheme where Donald Trump enriched himself at the expense of hard working people. Trump himself is a fraud.” A full video from the event is below.

Clinton then traveled to Boston, Massachusetts where she attended a fundraiser. The event included a special performance by Bon Jovi.
