LOL. TRUMP IS TALKING ABOUT “ REPRODUCTIVE PARTS “ AND KAMALA ABOUT “ REPRODUCTIVE RIGHTS “. 😂🤣🔵🔵🔵

[majortom]

I voted today, straight blue. Ofc, my state is safely blue (MA), but I encourage everyone to go vote and vote blue 💙

[timkaldahl]

Higher numbers have tended to favor democrats in the past. Fingers crossed.

[solopreneurjourney]

I’m so happy to hear Michelle Obama will be campaigning for Harris.

[spaski]

intimidation is maga's only weapon..so be brave and vote..and save us from evil!🙏

[jilll]

In Indiana and I voted for Harris as soon as polls opened. Party registration doesnt mean much in this election....hoping Indiana turns blue!

[existentialpoet]

Please vote early up and down the ballot for the Harris/Walz team - our freedoms and Democracy depend on it. Vote.

[flybefree]

I think some people are worried about violence on election day and early voting lets you avoid that.

[harvbegal]

If you are seriously undecided at this point; get your head examined.

Why doesn't anyone talk about where his family and wife are? His wife is absent and just waiting to divorce him and get what she can out of him. She is him in a female body if anyone was still wondering. She is from the same cloth.

Registered Republican here. Voted 💙 in the last two elections and I will ABSOLUTELY be voting💙 in 2024.

[davidcorrales]

My parents are hardcore Republicans that voted for Trump and wanted to vote for him again, but I convinced them to vote BLUE this time around.

[laura]

Kentucky red state here. My voters registration says republican. My husband's registration says republican. Same with my neighbor. We are all voting straight blue 💙

[goodnessthentruth]

I want to be able to say President Kamala Harris 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[piphughes]

How are abortion and women's health ever not going to be a major issue? They can't and shouldn't be ignored! Our lives depend on them.

[lucynavarro]

My mom and I are both voting early tomorrow in Kansas City. Go Kamala 🎉

[jam]

I'm voting straight BLUE all the way down the ticket. The GOP needs a come to Jesus moment. Give to them.

[micahperoulis]

Mixed feelings here. On the one hand, I get the sense that it may not be as close as it seems given the way things have been moving but on the other hand, I’m incredibly anxious about how close this election has been advertised as. Certainly too close for comfort. One thing I do know — I’ll feel far more relieved once I vote for Harris/Walz this week in South Carolina. We’re at the finishing stretch. Go vote and hold fast, everyone.

[billyrubin]

Donald Trump convinced me to do it. I’m dropping my ballot in the box tomorrow voting straight Blue. 🇺🇸🔵

[billyrubin]

I would probably vote for Trump if I were a multimillionaire just for the tax breaks, but anything else would be like shooting my self in the foot.
