November may come down to a battle between controlling men and women who just want their freedom
Please please please correct me if I’m wrong, but nobody can know who you voted for unless you tell them. Just that you voted. Ballots are unsigned and you place it in the box (supervised, but folded and unexamined) yourself.
This is the law in all fifty states.
And please, nobody should be photographing their ballots or even using a phone or camera in the polling station. If it is possible to generate proof of vote, the controlling assholes of the world will use that to illegally coerce votes.
Some states allow it, others prohibit it, but it is unclear whether prohibitions are constitutional.
Mail in ballots do have the wrinkle in that the ballot is filed in at home where a controlling and abusive spouse can control behavior.

I feel like if this is a concern, there’s WAY more in your relationship you need to worry about.
Yes, and not everyone can safely escape such a relationship. Your response comes off as dismissive (I assume unintentionally), but we need to raise awareness and provide support for the shockingly high number of people trapped in relationships like this.

There was no vitriol in my response, we are cool here. ✌️
I was just saying that while “get out of the relationship” IS generally good advice for someone wanting to know if their husband can see their vote, it is often so difficult as to be impractical for the short term. I have a lot of experience with people trapped in abusive relationships like this (I grew up in a wildly fundamentalist religious environment) so I try to raise awareness about that.
To actually answer the question, votes are secret. A woman can vote her conscience safely no matter what her husband tells her to do.
My apologies. It’s that “you can’t tell the true meaning in text” thing.
But I completely agree. Spousal abuse is rampant and saddening. I, as the husband, left my first marriage because of it. My mother experienced it with my step father. It’s a social disease and one with no clear resolve. :(
I thought the plan was to have a vote for every child and have the husband cast all the votes?
/s come on, did I really have to include this? Apparently, yes.
Pretty sure Vance has literally said that tho…
It sure wasn’t my idea. Yes. He said that.
Yes, sarcasm is dead thanks to MAGA. They are so crazy, even clearly sarcastic comments are taken at face value. It must be pointed out, not implied.
This makes me think of the vid where T gave some serious sideeye trying to see how Melania was voting in the presidential election.
It’s true, I would never let my wife vote for JD Vance.
JD Vance puts his cast iron in the dishwasher pass it on
First he scrubs it with a brillo pad to make it shiny.
Then he humps it.
If pro-democracy wives are worried about their husbands finding out that they voted for Kamala… I’m a single male and support your vote.
