In a spirited rally in Tucson, local leaders rallied support for the upcoming election, emphasizing the importance of voter participation and the potential historic significance of electing Kamala Harris as the first female president of the United States. With just days remaining until the election, speakers urged attendees to engage their communities, fill out their ballots, and ensure their friends and family are also participating in the democratic process.

Adelita Grijalva, chair of the Pima County Board of Supervisors, highlighted the critical issues at stake, particularly opposing Project 2025, which she claimed threatens to dismantle the Department of Education. Grijalva, a proud product of public education, underscored the transformative power of education in improving lives and urged attendees to advocate for future generations.

Mayor Regina Romero echoed these sentiments, calling on the community to mobilize and reach out to voters, particularly within the Latino community, to support the Harris-Walz ticket. The rally served as a reminder of the collective effort required to secure a brighter future through active civic engagement, with leaders emphasizing that every conversation and vote counts in shaping the nation’s direction.
