First lady Michelle Obama will stump for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in a last-minute push to turn out minority voters just weeks after her husband urged Nevadans to keep Democrats in office.

Obama will join Reid Monday at Canyon Springs High School in Las Vegas for a final get-out-the-vote rally before Election Day.

Tickets to the public event are suggested, but not required.

Reid is in a tight race against Republican and tea party favorite Sharron Angle. He has brought in President Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton and labor secretary Hilda Solis to excite voters and carry him into a fifth term.

The popular first lady hit the campaign trail earlier this month for the first time since her husband's 2008 election.
