Days before the nation’s midterm elections, which will ultimately determine who controls Capitol Hill for the next two years, the President of the United States pleaded with Americans to vote.

“I have got a simple message,” said President Barack Obama to a crowd Sunday during a rally at Temple University for Pennsylvania gubernatorial candidate Tom Wolf (D). “We’ve got to vote. … Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote. Vote.”
