Summary
Trend underlines vast gender divide as election approaches, as experts say some women face pressure to ‘toe the line’ politically at home.
A TikTok trend of women “canceling out” their partners’ votes highlights a gender divide in the 2024 election, with many young women supporting Kamala Harris while their male partners back Trump. Campaigns encourage women, especially those in conservative households, to vote independently, emphasizing privacy through ads featuring voices like Michelle Obama and Liz Cheney. Conservatives like Charlie Kirk and Jesse Watters criticize these efforts, claiming they undermine family values.
You can do that in the US*. My ex had to do it when her dad stole her ballot in 2016 and voted for Trump.
We got the last laugh, though. He was a massive anti masker and then died of COVID. Wasn’t really that funny though…just sad all around.
*Edit to add - some places in the US
US election rules are extremely regional, this isn’t true everywhere.
most places that have a mail in option you can report a stolen ballot, afaik. So if somebody fills out your ballot just report it stolen from the mailbox
True, apologies. You can do this some places in the US I should say.
Voter suppression is a real disease like gerrymandering.
