Obama's chance to make sure he leaves no LGBTQ vote behind.

Every election year, Philadelphia's OutFest becomes ground zero for
local and state politicians hoping to win the gay vote. Candidates
like now-Mayor Michael Nutter have cultivated a strong following by
working the crowd and spreading an LGBTQ-inclusive message. This
year, the stakes are even higher: The votes of Philly's LGBTQ
community will help decide where Pennsylvania falls in the
presidential race. So come Oct. 12, Obama supporters will be hitting
OutFest's glitter-covered streets.
