Bill Clinton, Gabby Giffords Stump For Hillary At Wissahickon Middle School

by Kristen Johanson

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- We are days away from the primary vote in Pennsylvania and candidates are campaigning all over the state, and so are their families.

Hundreds packed inside Wissahickon Middle School to see former President Bill Clinton.

"I feel a little stronger, I wasn't a big Hillary fan. I am a big Bill fan and he made some good points," said Vince, who left the rally still unsure who he's voting for.

"President Clinton made a lot of good points. My daughter here is in college so that's a big issue. Healthcare is a big issue, see how he hit on a lot of points," said Rich, an Ambler native who brought his daughter.

Gabby Giffords, who was shot in 2011, and her husband Mark Kelly were also in attendance, urging voters to cast their ballot for Hillary who supports stricter gun laws.

This was a welcome message to attendees Cindy and Nancy, who are "very involved to end gun violence. Guns is a major issue, but also the fact that Hillary has the experience, she has more experience than anybody else running."
