Steph Curry, Lin-Manuel Miranda to headline virtual volunteer rally for When We All Vote

Stephen Curry and Lin-Manuel Miranda will headline a virtual volunteer rally next week for When We All Vote, the nonpartisan voter registration organization launched by former first lady Michelle Obama.

The event, Countdown to the Polls, will take place virtually Tuesday from 8 to 9 p.m. EDT. According to the event description, it will be an “essential training session” that covers how people can boost the initiative’s efforts ahead of National Voter Registration Day on Sept. 17.

It will feature Curry, Miranda and comedian Loni Love, who serves as an ambassador for the initiative.

Curry, a star player for the Golden State Warriors, and Miranda, the creator of the award-winning Broadway show “Hamilton,” serve as co-chairs for “When We All Vote.”

The group of stars will be helping to mobilize volunteers and urge voters to create a Voting Squad, a registration portal that allows people to share a link with people they know to register, the initiative said. People can then track how many people register using their personalized link.

The When We All Vote initiative began in 2018 and aims to increase voter participation across the country. The organization said that in 2020, the voter campaign reached more than 100 million people “to educate them about the voting process and get them registered and ready to vote.”

Miranda has become increasingly involved in the political world in recent years. He is among a group of Broadway artists part of a volunteer coalition called Broadway for Harris, which will feature phone banking, social media outreach, canvassing and other fundraising efforts for Vice President Harris’s White House bid, Playbill reported this week .

It comes after the Broadway star supported President Biden’s 2020 and 2024 presidential runs.

Curry, for his part, has not completely ruled out the potential for a political run. He told CBS Mornings earlier this year he would “maybe” consider running for president in the future.

When asked in March if he was interested in politics, he said, “I have an interest in leveraging every part of my influence for good in the way that I can, so if that’s the way to do it.”

“I’m not saying the presidency,” he added, at the time, “But if politics is a way that you can create meaningful change or if there’s another way outside of politics that we can do,” then he’s not ruling it out, Curry said.

He has at times been outspoken on political topics, and he warned in 2022 that Americans should take a potential second term as president for former President Trump as a serious “threat.”

The When We All Vote’s star-studded board features a host of other celebrities, including Selena Gomez, Tom Hanks, Jennifer Lopez, Janelle Monáe, Kerry Washington and others.
