While millions will still vote for the Republican candidate, perhaps hating immigrants more than they love reproductive rights, the only certainty at this point is that many millions more will vote for Vice President Kamala Harris. In the latest ABC News/Ipsos national poll, the Democrat enjoyed a 14% advantage with women over Trump; among women with a college degree, that number rose to 23%; among women voters under 40, it rocketed to 34%.
…
That, in turn, is causing some MAGA commentators to break from their usual posture of feigned confidence to outright panic.
“Early vote has been disproportionately female,” Charlie Kirk, head of Turning Point USA and helping to lead the Trump campaign’s get-out-the-vote effort, posted on social media. “If men stay at home, Kamala is president. It’s that simple.”
Ladies, divorce your Republican husband while you still can.
From a hotel in another city or a distant but good friend’s place. Avoid the black eyes please.
Ah, but republican men are pushing for laws to make it difficult or even illegal to divorce them without permission.
See, now if a billionaire would just finance divorce lawyers for this, then I might have a second thing on my list of things that billionaires are good for.
They’re preparing to strip women from voting, like in the good ol’ times.
I refuse to go backward too, but they overuled Roe, which my aunties told me would NEVER happen. So just not going back isn’t enough. We have to move forward.
Well if early indicators are correct, not only will Kamala win, it’s possible to retake congress.
To state the obvious… Go Vote, bring your friends, every vote counts. Especially when it comes to down ballot.
Already happened /s

So I remember hearing in HS US history class that one of the arguments against women’s suffrage 100-odd years ago is that married men would now have 2 votes instead of one. This would disadvantage them against bachelors or widowers, who would of course not be able to dictate their nonexistent wives’ votes. Unmarried men would only have the one vote, which didn’t seem fair.
I guess the idea is not a new worry. It just seems like the fretting has reversed its polarity.
The fact that they’re still married to these assholes is beyond me at this point.
I hope that the trend that young people have of not wanting to fuck Republicans hold because seriously, stop fucking Republicans by stop fucking Republicans.
You get into these things when you’re younger and it’s very hard to get out again later.
you get into these things when you’re younger.
What, chauvanistic conservativism?
Or anything else you can think of. Human behavior is stochastic. My real point is that people don’t recognize problems when they are younger–red flags from narcissistic behavior, for example. It’s easy to get into a relationship without realizing that the person you love will abuse you.
I wouldn’t say don’t fuck republicans, but do not marry one without a prenup because there is like a 90% chance they’ll go insane because they saw non-white bandaids on a shelf or something
Some numbers guy political consultant said “This is the best way to turn out votes in the last week of the election” and a bunch of campaigns believed it.
It’s all just consultant Voodoo. Whomever wins still have described the signs and rituals one must perform to become President, and then everyone else will try to do the same thing four years from now.
Democrats are doing creepy stuff, too.
From the Center for Voter Information:
Dear xxxxxx,
Public records indicate that you are eligible to vote in the upcoming election on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. Remember, who you vote for is private, but whether or not you voted is public record.
We’re sending this mailing to you and your neighbors to share who does and does not vote in an effort to promote election participation. While we have hidden the name and street number of your neighbors to protect their privacy, these are their true voting records.
[table showing whether I and two of my neighbors voted on the last four elections.]
We will be reviewing these records after the election to determine whether or not you joined your neighbors in voting.
None of this is OK.
I agree that’s a flyer like this could be worded a lot different to spread awareness without sounding threatening. They also send out mailers that tell candidates’ positions on topics that has been questionably factually in the past. Conversely I had received before the voting period a mailer listing all the judges of the county and their own statements, basically a consolidation of information, that was very helpful. It’s about knowing how far to go, and of course being truly non-partisan.

I need this. I left the judges ones blank because IDK a thing about these people and you can’t find things about them online!
Goddammit, men. Why do you have to always make us all look bad?
