Julia Roberts Ad Promotes Harris Vote Amid Backlash

A new advertisement featuring Julia Roberts has ignited controversy by encouraging women to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris, even if their husbands support former President Trump. Released by Vote Common Good, the ad subtly addresses abortion rights and suggests that women can vote freely without their husbands knowing. Some Republicans reacted strongly, with Fox News host Jesse Watters equating a wife's secret vote for Harris to infidelity, while GOP member Charlie Kirk described the ad as 'nauseating.' The backlash highlights the polarized political climate as the 2024 presidential election approaches, with Harris leading among female voters and Trump among male voters. Former Rep. Liz Cheney also chimed in, calling out Kirk's remarks. The ad reflects ongoing tensions surrounding women's voting rights and agency in the current political landscape.
