Beyoncé and Jay Z are officially with her. The couple joined Hillary Clinton on the campaign trail at a rally in Cleveland, Ohio tonight.
With just four days left until the election, both Jay Z and Beyoncé performed separately at a "Get Out the Vote" show supporting Clinton alongside Big Sean and Chance the Rapper. Backstage, Beyoncé wore an "I'm With Her" shirt and ripped jeans while meeting with the presidential candidate.
The highlight of the night was the rousing speech Beyoncé gave, endorsing Clinton and urging everyone to vote:
There was a time when a woman's opinion did not matter. If you were black, white, Mexican, Asian, Muslim, educated, poor or rich, if you were a woman, it did not matter. Less than 100 years ago, women did not have the right to vote. Look how far we've come from having no voice to being on the brink of making history again by electing the first woman president. Yes! But we have to vote. The world looks to us as a progressive country that leads change. Eight years ago, I was so inspired to know that my nephew, a young black child, could grow up knowing his dreams could be realized by witnessing a black president in office. And now we have the opportunity to create more change. I want my daughter to grow up seeing a woman lead our country, and know that her possibilities are limitless. We have to think about the future of our daughters, our sons, and vote for someone who cares for them as much as we do. And that is why I'm with her. If you are ready for freedom, make some noise.
Queen Bey closed out the show with a performance of "Formation" and "Freedom." And the best part? She and her backup dancers all wore HRC-inspired pantsuits.

You know what they say, the election's not over until Queen Bey sings.
