Performing for an Obama rally in Las Vegas on Wednesday, the singer wore a tight white dress printed with the image of a ballot – with the square next to the Obama ticket clearly marked. “Don’t wait. Go tomorrow,” she told the crowd of 10,000. “How many of you are 18 here? It’s going to be your first time, right?”
