Odom used his incredible voice to urge voters to be patient while awaiting the election results.
"In this historic election, millions of you have mailed in your ballots or dropped them off and all of us deserve to be counted," he said. "These are votes for our grandparents staying safe from COVID. Our overseas military sending their ballots by mail. Our neighbors, our friends, nurses, teachers, firefighters."
