VIDEO: Michael B. Jordan surprising Georgia voters at home is best thing online today
Imagine being at home, minding your business when the doorbell rings – and there stands Michael B. Jordan and his bright, pearly whites smiling in your face! Surprise!
This was real life for some lucky families in Atlanta who got to meet the Creed star when he showed up on their doorstep as part of a campaign to encourage people to vote during the midterms Nov. 6, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

If that’s not encouragement, then we don’t know what is!
On Wednesday, Color Of Change PAC — the nation’s largest online racial justice organization – released a video showing the Black Panther star out and about in the A, going door-to-door meeting and greeting unsuspecting families and asking them to be the change by casting their ballots.
“We about to go surprise some people real quick, knock on some doors! It’s crunch time, everybody. Y’all got to get out and vote,” Jordan says emphatically in the video.
One woman opened the door and was completely taken aback.
“Oh my God,” she said before christening the moment with a “Wakanda forever!” arm crossed salute.

Jordan explains in the video the importance of why Black folks particularly need to vote in the midterm elections.
“This midterm election, exercising your right to vote is as important as ever,” he says.””I know some of you think that your vote doesn’t matter, but you’re actually some of the most important voters in the country.”

Adds Jordan: “Your vote will help elect officials who can make a difference on issues like police brutality, criminal justice reform and racial justice. So, please join me and Color of Change PAC and show up to vote on Nov. 6.”
