Politicians are thirsty for votes, and voters are thirsty for water. Enter Paul Rudd. During the last presidential election in 2020, Rudd gave out cookies in New York .
This year, the actor stopped by polling sites near universities in the swing state of Pennsylvania to help people in hourslong lines stay hydrated. “I just wanted to give people water. They’re waiting in line for a long time, and it’s a wonderful thing that all these young people are out voting,” he said live on MSNBC at Temple University.
Rudd’s presence seemed to be an incentive for students to stay in line, with some taking the opportunity to accept a bottle of water and ask him for a selfie. While stopping at Villanova University, he told the student newspaper that casting a ballot is “very important, especially for young voters who are going to be having to live with the results longer than old farts like me.” The 55-year-old added that he encourages everyone to vote to “keep our democracy alive.
” Other social-media posts suggest that Rudd also made an appearance at Lehigh University. If Rudd somehow still has any water left after he’s finished trekking through Pennsylvania tonight, we hear that people are getting pretty hot while watching the Kornacki cam ..
