Just days away from Election Day, many women have on TikTok have hinted that they’re voting for Democratic nominee Kamala Harris, while their parents are voting for Republican nominee Donald Trump. As part of the trend, each video shows social media users with a piece of paper in hand as they leave their houses to go vote.

"POV, [on my way] to cancel out my Trump-loving husband’s vote in a swing state,” she said, along with a blue heart emoji and an American flag emoji.

so will they be represented before Trump wins the election or after the concentration camps?

you're not going to change my mind on this, I already voted for Harris. I just want to see that dim little light in your head get really bright before it pops when you fully realize that your "3rd party votes can change the world" lies don't work anymore.

in a perfect democracy, your vote for a 3rd party candidate might make a difference. we are not in a perfect democracy. we are in a broken democracy, where the only option we have is to not become a compete fascist nation.

Does this ever stop? THE GEN Z VOTERS HERE ARE VOTING FOR HARRIS! But nothing, not the truth, not a goddamned thing on this planet will get between a centrist and an opportunity to deliver a sanctimonious lecture about how the slightest disappointment in the system is somehow ushering in Trump again.

And before your lecture reflex kicks in a second time, I already voted for Harris. Not like that will stop you.

at this point in the election complaining about the lack of options is just mental masturbation.
