Hillary at the University of Pennsylvania By Keith Morrison

With less than 24 hours until the polls open for the Pennsylvania primaries, Senator Hillary Clinton and family stopped by the University of Pennsylvania for some last-minute campaigning. The crowd, filling the Palestra to near capacity, was overjoyed to catch a glimpse of the first female presidential hopeful. While waiting for Hillary to arrive at the venue, those in attendance were entertained by the likes of Michael Nutter, Ed Rendell, and Bill Clinton to name a few. As Hillary entered the arena the chants began and did not end until midnight.

Homeless Rally by Christina Mazza

Today in front of the National Constitution Center groups that work with the homeless held a press conference and a rally protesting the proposed closing of "Overnight Cafes" in the city, which are all-night alternatives to shelters for the homeless. Speakers discussed the importance of voting in the primary tomorrow. They believe that the presidential candidates are barely paying attention to the increasing number of homeless persons in Philadelphia and the country and they need to stop tuning a blind eye to the crisis.
