Lola Nordlinger and Keely Ganong believe that student voices in Michigan could secure a victory for Kamala Harris in the upcoming election. Young women in battleground states like Arizona and Michigan are actively participating in early voting, with Harris hoping to garner their support to sway the election in her favor.
On the University of Michigan’s campus in Ann Arbor, students like Keely Ganong are eager to cast their votes for Harris, citing her leadership qualities as inspiring. Gender equality, particularly concerning abortion rights, is a key issue for these young voters, with many emphasizing the importance of personal choice in such matters.
The campus buzz surrounding the election is palpable, with student voices expected to play a significant role in shaping the outcome. Harris holds a significant lead among women aged 18-29, especially among college students, according to recent polls.
As the election draws closer, the focus on engaging young women voters intensifies. Harris supporters like Hannah Brocks are actively involved in grassroots efforts to mobilize support for the candidate, emphasizing Harris’s empathy and inclusive message.
The issue of women’s reproductive rights, particularly concerning abortion, is a crucial factor for many voters, including those in Arizona where a ballot question on abortion rights has garnered significant attention. Harris’s commitment to safeguarding abortion rights has resonated with many women voters, potentially influencing their decision at the polls.
The Harris campaign is hopeful that the abortion issue will not only energize Democratic voters but also attract support from Republican women who may be swayed by this key issue. The prospect of overturning Roe v Wade has sparked important conversations among voters, highlighting the personal significance of this election for many women.
Overall, young women voters are poised to have a significant impact on the election, with their voices and choices likely to shape the outcome in key battleground states. Harris’s appeal among this demographic, coupled with her stance on critical issues like abortion rights, could prove pivotal in securing victory in a closely contested race. Pero esta vez, ella dice que se siente emocionada de votar por Harris.
“Sentí que ella podría representarme como una mujer americana práctica”, le dijo a la BBC a principios de octubre.
Dijo que está cansada de la “masculinidad tóxica” y cree que otras mujeres republicanas, como ella, sienten lo mismo.
“No me importa cuál sea la persuasión política – las mujeres están hartas”, dijo.
Pero no todas las mujeres republicanas están convencidas. Tracey Sorrel, una texana que forma parte del Panel de Votantes de la BBC, dijo que cree que Harris llevaría los derechos al aborto demasiado lejos. A pesar de que no le gusta algunas de las cosas que dice, la Sra. Sorrel dijo que votará por Trump.
“No estoy votando por la personalidad. Estoy votando por la política. No tengo que casarme con el hombre”, dijo.
