Speaking to an enthusiastic crowd at a Kamala Harris rally  in Flint on Friday, Lansing native Ervin "Magic" Johnson said he's been a big supporter of the vice president for years, and emphasized the importance of getting Black men out to vote for her.

"I'm here because I've known Kamala for over 20 years. Cookie (his wife) and I supported her run for attorney general back in the state of California, her run for senator, and now we support her as the VP but now the biggest moment for all of us, November the 5th, we have to do all we can to elect Kamala Harris as the next president of the United States," said the former All-Star Los Angeles Laker.

"There's a lot of Black men in here and I don't mean to, you know, not talk to other people but this is important. Our Black men, we gotta get them out to vote,  that's number one. Kamala's opponent promised a lot of things last time to the Black community that he did not deliver on, and we gotta make sure we help Black men understand that."
