Good morning,

Former President Bill Clinton will campaign for Hillary Clinton at 11:15 a.m. on the side of MemAud facing College Green. If you want to go, you can line up near the Civil War Monument at about 10 a.m.

Clinton will be speaking in roughly the same spot President Barack Obama spoke in when he visited Athens in 2012. Lyndon Johnson also spoke on College Green in 1964, according to Compass.

Clinton’s campaign hasn’t neglected traditionally-blue Athens this election. A few weeks ago, two minor celebrities (Richard Schiff and John Lithgow) visited on behalf of the campaign.
