Chelsea Clinton Stumps For Her Mom During Lexington Visit

Clinton supporters survey tables lined with 2016 gear - from hats in all colors, including camouflage, to buttons of Bill and Hillary reading “42 and 45 coming soon!” In the one-room campaign office located in a shopping center just off Winchester Road, they're packed tight to hear from the guest of honor.

Sec. of State Alison Lundergan Grimes provides the warm-up. "Is Kentucky Clinton country? Let me hear you say yes!" she chants to applause.

A pregnant Chelsea Clinton soon takes the mic to rally the troops. Lamenting the "racist," sexist", and "homophobic" tenor of the GOP primary, Clinton reminds the crowd the stakes are high in this election and stresses the importance of turnout.

"A majority of registered voters haven't turned out to vote, so I hope that you will defy that here in Kentucky and have extraordinary turnout and particularly have extraordinary turnout among young people," she says.
