Fifth Harmony on the importance of voting: 'We need to get involved'

Girl group Fifth Harmony have stressed the important of voting for the next President of the United States of America in a new interview. 

Speaking to Latina magazine, the beauty explained that it's so important for people to vote - especially young people - because the election means so much to the USA and to their collective future:

“I posted something the other day, reminding 18-year-olds to register to vote. Because the youth of America will decide, because we’re the biggest demographic. We have the mass majority, and if young people don’t get involved in the voting process, then Trump’s going to win. He’s catering to a portion of Americans — the racist ones. It’s little things like that. If I can get 20 more girls to vote than that’s 20 more votes against something that could be negative. I try to be practical and not step on people’s toes, because I’ve gotten some intense hate for my opinions.”

Member Normani Hamilton also spoke about the next election, adding that Donald Trump is a dangerous nominee and she hopes he doesn't become President:

“I’ve been doing my research, and I came across an article on Twitter quoting some of the things Donald Trump has said. His main issue that he speaks on is immigration. That really scares me — to think that he could be my future president, and have power of my life, my parents, my friends. For him to be president would be a step backward.”
