LeBron James officially took a side in the presidential race ahead of Election Day on Tuesday.” data-reactid=”29″Not that it comes as a surprise, but LeBron James officially took a side in the presidential race ahead of Election Day on Tuesday.
James — who has been extremely vocal about the election, helping register people to vote and other social justice issues in recent months — endorsed Vice President Joe Biden and his running mate Kamala Harris in an Instagram post on Monday night.
“One more day. Please,” he wrote. “We need EVERYTHING to change and it all starts tomorrow.”
James had stopped short of officially endorsing Biden and Harris in the past, but his support of their candidacy was never in question.
Yahoo Sports’ Chris Haynes asked James if he’d be endorsing their ticket in August while inside the NBA bubble at Walt Disney World, and James just laughed.
“I mean, what’s known don’t even need to be said,” he replied.
LeBron James says urging people – particularly African Americans – to go to the polls is not about swaying them to a candidate. I asked who he’s endorsing for President of the United States in the upcoming election. @NBAonTNT pic.twitter.com/I4WLihehjU
