On Monday, Hillary Clinton spoke at three Get Out the Vote events in Kentucky before voters head to the polls tomorrow. The first event was held in Bowling Green where Clinton continued to focus her attacks on presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump. Of Trump she said, “What Trump says about foreign policy is not just offensive, it’s dangerous…I don’t think most Americans want a loose cannon in the Oval Office.” She also spoke about a number of platform policy points including reducing college debt, increasing the minimum wage, equal pay for women, and improving health care by updating the Affordable Care Act. She wrapped up her speech by asking for everyone’s support in tomorrow’s primary. A video from her speech is below.

Clinton then headed to Hopkinsville where she spoke on similar themes, and she also outlined her plan to help those living in areas dependent on the coal industry for employment. She said, “I’m the only candidate that has put forth a plan for coal country, a $30 billion plan to help people in coal country have a chance to have a better future.” As she typically does, she focused on the local area and issues that face those in Kentucky. She wrapped up her speech giving a nod to the nearby military base saying, “Tired of red team or blue team lets be on American team, like 101st airborne at Ft. Campbell be people know be if vote for me tomorrow will work hard and fight for you and make the future that we want, thank you God bless you.”

Clinton’s last event of the day was at Transylvania University in Lexington. During her speech, Clinton spoke about a number of topics including health care, the economy, and Trump. She spoke about a number of her platform plans and the importance of the 2016 presidential race. Clinton wrapped up her speech asking for voter’s support tomorrow saying, “If you go out and vote for me tomorrow, I will work for you, I will fight for you, I will stand up for you. Let’s go make the future we deserve to have.” A video from the event is below.

Before voters head to the polls Tuesday in the Kentucky Democratic primary, Hillary Clinton has several Get Out the Vote events scheduled for Sunday and Monday. Today, she began in Louisville where attended morning church services at St. Stephen Church and Canaan Christian Church before heading to a public event at a South Louisville union hall. During the Get Out the Vote event, Clinton spoke about her plans to improve the country’s infrastructure and create thousands of jobs in the process. She said, “We can put millions of Americans to work. A lot of this will be good union jobs because the people with the skills to do the jobs will be able to do them.” She spoke about a number of other platform points before asking for voters’ support in Tuesday’s primary. A video of her speech is below.

Clinton then traveled to Fort Mitchell where she spoke to a crowd of supporters at the historic home of Nathan Smith. During the event, she told that crowd that she would focus on growing the economy and put her husband, for president Bill Clinton, in charge of economic growth. The country saw strong growth during his administration in the 1990s, and she believes that many of the same strategies used then will work now. She also attacked presumptive Republican nominee for Donald Trump for being a “loose cannon” and someone who would not be helpful for the middle and working classes. She said that she is willing to work with anyone with ideas to revitalize the economy and continue the progress of the current administration saying, “I will seek common ground, but I will also stand my ground.”
