Obama stumping in NV to GOTV...
One could almost say that he's working his ass off. Though it wouldn't be fair to say he's the only one doing that.
Obama goes up against Trump in fight for Nevada Senate seat
Former President Barack Obama is back on the campaign trail two weeks before the midterm elections, appearing Monday at a rally at the University of Nevada Las Vegas campus to boost Democrats up and down the ballot.
“I want this to be the capital of voting," Obama told the crowd. "I’m here just to get one thing from you -- and this is for you to vote," he said. “This November’s elections are more important than any in my lifetime and that includes when I was on the ballot.”
“The consequences of you staying home would be profoundly dangerous for our country, for this democracy,” Obama said.
He's particularly focused on Nevada's Senate race, one of the tightest in the country. Democratic Rep. Jacky Rosen is challenging Republican incumbent Dean Heller, the only Republican senator up for re-election in a state that Hillary Clinton won in 2016.

"Unlike some, I actually try to state facts," Pres. Obama says. "I don't believe in just making stuff up. I think you should actually say to people what's true."
