William McNarney didn't let his age stop him from attending President Bill Clinton's campaign event in Orlando on Wednesday.

  • Bill Clinton campaigned in Orlando on wife's behalf
  • Speech in Richmond Heights was sold out
  • Clinton touched on wife's immigration reform, debt reduction plans

Despite being a decade shy of voting age, William's mind is made up on who should be elected president in November — and he turned out to encourage others to vote for his choice.

"I would vote for Hillary Clinton," William said. "We are going to the front of the line to see if anyone else needs to sign up."

A sold-out crowd of about 300 people packed the Dr. James R. Smith Neighborhood Center in the Richmond Heights area of Orlando to hear Clinton speak. All were eager to hear just what he thinks his wife, Hillary Clinton, will bring to Central Florida.

But William wasn't the only one thrilled the president decided to pick this area of southwest Orlando to talk.

During Bill Clinton's speech, Juanita Riley made it clear that the former president wasn't just speaking for all Americans — he was talking directly to her.

"This election is about you," Bill Clinton told the crowd, as Riley cheered.

Through each point — talking about immigration reform, reducing the debt ceiling and coming up with a plan to reduce college debt — William danced, and Riley cheered.

"You should vote for Hillary Clinton, because she's the best change-maker I ever knew," continued Bill Clinton, who was introduced to the crowd by Chief Val Demings, the Democratic candidate for Florida's 10th Congressional District.

In the end, both said they left that much more excited about their candidate, saying Wednesday's rally will help get more people to the polls.

"His speech was awesome, where he talked about what he and Hillary would do together versus what Donald Trump could do alone," William said.

Early Wednesday morning, several people were already in line to get in.

"I just like to come to these events every four years and listen to them speak," said Donald Butner, the first person waiting in line Wednesday. "It's basically history in the making."

Bill Clinton's stop in Orlando comes a day after his wife made a campaign stop at the University of South Florida in Tampa.

A new CNN/ORC poll released Tuesday shows Trump and Clinton are virtually neck and neck, with Trump leading Clinton by just two points — 45 percent to 43 percent.

Meanwhile, the former president's campaign stop was the third time he has been to Orlando since March. Just last month, he made a surprise visit to the memorial outside Pulse nightclub in Orlando.

"(Bill Clinton) being here kind of sparks us all," Riley said. "I'm hoping that it will send a spark that will start a fire, because we need a fire, and it needs to burn in Florida."
