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.”

something that this article didn’t mention is that jesse walters’ current marriage started as an affair: he started dating his current wife while he was married to his previous wife. (source)
yet another example of every accusation being a confession.
he started dating his current wife while he was married to his previous wife
Traditional Republican values today.
You could say he’s a tradhusband.
Missing little nugget on this. His current wife, ex mistress, was a producer in his show. Copy/pasted from Wikipedia: “Noelle filed for divorce in 2018 after Watters admitted to an affair with a producer on his show, Emma DiGiovine. Watters claimed to have begun dating DiGiovine by letting the air out of her vehicle’s tires so she would ask him for a ride.”
Funking all caps CREEP.
it’s (somehow) even creepier when you hear how he describes it:
“When I was trying to get [my wife Emma] to date me, first thing I did, uh, I let the air out of her tires,” Watters claimed, pleased with himself. “She couldn’t go anywhere, she needed a lift. I said, ‘Hey, you need a lift?’ She hopped right in the car.” (source)
Accufessions should be a term.
How dare they have opinions of their own.
Their book says…
Which book is their book? Obviously not the one they wave around as a magic talisman but never read more than a few carefully selected sentences out of at a time….
That’s generous. Statistically speaking, fewer can read than will.
I wonder if divorce rates will go up.
As long as No Fault Divorce is still legal in their areas.
Will a republican judge see a fault in a married woman voting against her
ownershusbands wishes?Exactly. Depends on who wins the election!
No, most likely just spousal abuse. The right is well known for not having to need proof to believe something as fact. All they need is a passing thought that it could be possible, or worse the orange tells them “your wives are traitors that voted for Kam-ela”
@MicroWave Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA: “If men stay at home, Kamala is president. It’s that simple.”
🥳 YASS, king!!! 🥳 🥳 🥳
…Wait, what? That’s not how he meant it?
So those MAGA women actually have two jobs: Vote early for Harris, and keep their husbands occupied on voting day…
Sneak in a good laxative!!! 😁
My wife just read to me a tweet (or whatever) where a husband was making his wife vote by mail so he could guarantee she voted for Trump.
I feel like he should be charged for voting twice. If she doesn’t get to pick who to vote for, she’s not voting, he is. Send him to jail for 15 years (or for whatever they sent that woman who cast the provisional ballot because she was told she could and then she wasn’t eligible to vote in the end).
The irony of these guys complaining about vote manipulation conspiracies while manipulating votes.
They think this is what everyone does. They publicly virtue signal that they oppose whichever bad thing so they can condemn others for doing it while secretly doing it themselves. It’s ok when they do it themselves anyway, because they are good people doing a necessary thing for good reasons. When others find out about their behavior, their reaction is to accuse harder, because they assume we are all doing that too and they are angry that we didn’t get caught yet.
That’s actually the one coherent argument I’ve seen against voting by mail. But if someone is that closely dominated, voting is only one of their problems. I don’t think depriving everybody else of voting by mail is the right way to handle it.
The solution I’ve heard is you’re able to go to the elections office after mailing your ballot and void the mailed one and vote in person. Depending on the level of control/oversight may be not realistic for everyone, but again, at that point I’m more concerned about the human than the vote and were talking a whole other problem to solve.
Yes, I agree. I think the solution for these case is to crack down on illegally voting this way.

Treat women like objects and strip their rights… fuck around and find out.
Oh, many of them are. They are right to be afraid. Everything makes these gamma males afraid, though. Climate change, the empowerment of women, people who disagree with them.
They are gentler than snowflakes, they are cold breezes in a world that’s steadily warming. And they know it. They fear the future, no matter what happens. They fear change.
It’s as if they want to conserve the status quo. We should call them “conservationists”!
Smash the patriarchy.
“Voting for Harris is like having an affair”? That extrapolates into some pretty creepy implications about how they see their and their wife’s relationship with Trump.
Also, Jesse Watters has had documented affairs. Is Jesse secretly voting Harris?
Next they’ll be wanting jobs, to own property and to wear trousers too!
Yeah, and we can’t give them that because trousers are a zero-sum game and if women wear trousers, then there won’t be enough trousers to go around!
/s
worst thing about the Julia Roberts ad (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaCPck2qDhk, if you must) is they someone not completely filling in the scantron bubble on the ballot
also Charlie “master debater” Kirk and Jesse “yelling on TV is my memorable trait” Watters are desperate tools, SO ANXIOUS to control women
Lol. This is awesome. What a bunch of douchebag losers.
When you’re so surrounded by enemies you aren’t even safe in your own bunker!
If they didn’t let people take their phone with them while they fill the slip I guarantee there would be even more.
They don’t let you use your phone.
You’re hidden while filling the ballot aren’t you? Not hard to take it out and take a picture because your crazy spouse wants to make sure you vote “for the right person”
It is a crime in Texas to take photograph s within 100ft of a voting machine
It was annoying too, because Texas has huge ballots, and I took notes on my phone to help me.
No. Mine looks like this but more spaced out. They have signs up about phones and the room is very well monitored. I tried to use my phone last time because i had screenshotted my vote411. They gave me a pen and a paper to go outside and write them down instead.
Edit-forgot the pic.
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.
Ah. Yep. Phones are okay in Illinois. Phones are not okay in Texas. Those are the only two I checked.
