Shannon Sharpe Credits LeBron James For Joe Biden's Campaign
Shannon Sharpe just wants to see LeBron get his proper shine.
As of this morning, a winner has yet to be declared in the United States Presidential Election. By all accounts, it appears as though former Vice President Joe Biden will end up winning with 306 Electoral Votes to President Donald Trump’s 232. Regardless, the final vote tallies have yet to come in and Americans are starting to grow impatient with what appears to be inevitable at this point.
Biden was heavily helped out by voter turnout in cities such as Philadelphia, Atlanta, Milwaukee, and Detroit where there are higher black populations. Effectively, it was this turnout that put him over the edge, and much of this voter enthusiasm can be chalked up to the get out to vote campaigns conducted by various high-profile individuals.
While speaking to TMZ, Shannon Sharpe even gave credit to LeBron James, saying he was one of the biggest reasons Biden is doing so well.
“I’m sure [LeBron] had something to do with it because we registered the voting block. You look at what happened in Detroit, you look at what happened in Philadelphia, look at what happened in Atlanta, you look at what happened in Milwaukee,” Sharpe said. “Now, I don’t know what’s going to transpire, but when President Biden, when this thing is finally official, his first meeting should be with the leaders from those communities. They should eat first! What can I do for those communities? That was his Moses. They delivered him the presidency.”
LeBron’s More Than A Vote campaign led to some huge outreach amongst voters and for now, it seems like his plans paid dividends in the end. Only time will tell whether or not Biden can wrap this election up.
