Summary:
Amid rising early voting numbers from women in battleground states like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania—where they make up 55% of ballots cast—some conservative voices are panicking. Right-wing commentators are sounding the alarm, fearing that even MAGA-supporting husbands’ wives might be casting secret ballots for Kamala Harris.
Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, has put it starkly: “If men stay at home, Kamala is president. It’s that simple.” Jesse Watters of Fox News has even equated a wife secretly voting for Harris to “having an affair.”
That’s weird. I saw no such signs and had my phone out when I voted. It was in my hand plain as day when I walked from the ballot table to the booth.
Guess it varies from places to places… Which is always weird from a Canadian point of view considering federal elections are handled by the federal government so the norms are the same cross country.
