Actor and comedian Will Ferrell has been recruited by the Harris campaign in a last-ditch effort to convince voters to go to the polls on Tuesday to vote for her.
In a short 30-second clip, Ferrell attempts to use scare tactics while claiming how during the 2020 presidential election, Joe Biden only managed to keep Donald Trump out of office by just “a few thousand votes.”
It’s Kamala Harris’ latest attempt to use A-list celebrities to help her run for office, which has seen some of the biggest names in entertainment come out to support her both online and at rallies, including Beyonce, Taylor Swift and Bruce Springsteen.
“This election will be one of the closest in history to your vote making a difference; that means you, Gary…” Ferrell begins as he addresses the camera directly.

‘Last time only a few “A thousand votes kept Trump out of office and this time we will hold him personally responsible,” Ferrell threatens, while apparently addressing an apathetic voter named Gary.
‘Gary, don’t forget to vote for Gary!’ He urges before the video ends.
Last week, Ferrell teamed up with comedian Billy Eichner as part of a final vote-getting push by the Harris campaign, and the videos have garnered more than 100 million views so far.
Eichner and Ferrell took to the streets of New York as “loud white men for Kamala,” wearing matching T-shirts.
The couple shouted in the faces of several New Yorkers walking the streets asking them who they would vote for and if they would “sleep with a Trump voter.”
“We’re here today to represent a very important demographic of voters, loud white men for Kamala Harris,” Eichner says as the video begins with Ferrell at his side.

The couple ran and shouted at several men and women who were asked to “join the call.”
Many of the people they spoke to expressed support for the vice president taking the nation’s highest office, while encouraging one man to shout, “I support Kamala.”
Another told the celebrities he had already mailed in a ballot for Harris.
At another point, Eichner joked that Harris would do ‘Buddy the Elf Secretary of Christmas,’ referring to Ferrell’s role in the Christmas movie Elf.
They even asked two women if they would ever “sleep with a Trump voter,” to which one woman responded “no,” while another groaned.
Eichner said he decided to resurrect the comedy bit to “do everything we can to protect Americans from Donald Trump in these crucial final days of early voting and exactly one week before Election Day.”

Both Eichner and Ferrell have expressed their support for Harris, and Eichner took to Instagram last week with a video sharing his thoughts.
“It’s time to panic, and not just panic, but do something about it,” he said.
Eichner went on to call former President Donald Trump a “rapist” and a “nepo baby.”
“We cannot allow what happened with Hillary in 2016 to happen again,” he said, adding: “The polls are not good.”
“Please do what you can because we will live to regret it if we don’t.”
Two days before Election Day, Kamala Harris made four stops in the battleground state of Michigan on Sunday.
At a rally at Michigan State University, Harris got an enthusiastic response when she asked who had already voted and then gave the students another job: encourage their friends to vote in a state that allows voter registration on Election Day. elections.
And instead of her usual speeches about Trump being unstable, unhinged and uncontrollably power-hungry, Harris sought to contrast her optimistic tone with the darker message of her unnamed Republican opponent.
It was all in service of trying to improve his standing in one of the Democratic “blue wall” states in the Midwest considered his easiest potential path to an Electoral College majority.

Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump is reflected in the bulletproof glass as he finishes speaking at a campaign rally in Lititz, Pennsylvania, on Sunday.
Meanwhile, Donald Trump gave a profane, conspiracy-laden speech on Sunday talking about the shooting of journalists and suggesting he “should not have left” the White House after his 2020 loss.
In comments Sunday that bore little resemblance to the speech he gave at his recent rallies, the former president repeatedly raised questions about the integrity of the vote and resurrected old grievances after trying to overturn his 2020 election loss.
Trump escalated his verbal attacks against what he described as a “demonic” Democratic Party and the American media, addressing his rally in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, at one point to the topic of violence against members of the press.
He looked at the ballistic glass used to protect it at outdoor events after the attempted murder of a gunman in July and pointed out the openings between the panels.
“I have this piece of glass here,” he said. But all we have here is fake news. And to catch me, someone would have to spread the fake news. And I don’t care much about that.
