A private Facebook group created a little over two weeks is rallying its more than 1.3 million members to wear the Democratic presidential candidate signature look a pantsuit on Election Day.
A fact sheet provided to media by the creators of the group, Pantsuit Nation, explains that a movement to wear pantsuits seemed like a fit.
Now that its membership has ballooned, the community has evolved from a place to coordinate Election Day attire into a place where members (of all genders and political parties, according to founder Libby Chamberlain) not only rave about their chosen candidate, but also provide moral support each to other in the face of what many feel is a hugely stressful run-up to voting day.
We share stories about our grandparents, our children, and our families, Chamberlain said. We support each other during this highly contentious election season and have created a refuge from the vitriol that is sweeping the nation. Administrators encourage members to adhere to the go high mantra made famous by first lady Michelle Obama, and so far, she says, the response has been astounding.
