Will American voters vote for Kamala Harris, despite their husbands – supporters of Donald Trump? The encouraging campaign ad, endorsed by Julia Roberts herself, did not appeal to the Republican candidate. – He'll be ashamed of it – says Trump and asks: – Can you imagine a wife who doesn't tell her husband who she's voting for?
Husband and wife at the polling station. They both wear American flag hats, popular with voters Donald Trump. “It's your turn, honey,” the man says to his wife. As a woman approaches the table to vote, she exchanges glances with another woman voting. After a moment, he circles Harris on the ballot. After voting, her husband asks her if she made the right decision, and she nods with a smile. Finally, he exchanges knowing glances with the woman again, suggesting that she has done the same.
This is what the spot narrated by Julia Roberts looks like. One of the most popular Hollywood stars encourages other ladies to vote according to their conscience and reminds them that no one will know who they voted for.
– In this one place in America, women still have the right to vote. You can vote however you want and no one will ever know, he says. – Remember, what happens at the polling station stays at the polling station – he adds.

Donald Trump on Julia Roberts: She will be ashamed
Spot with the winner Oscar Donald Trump didn't like it. He referred to it on the weekend program “Fox & Friends”. – I am very disappointed in Julia Roberts. One day he will look back on it and be ashamed. 'Did I really say that?' – Trump said. – It doesn't say much about her relationship (with her husband – ed.), but I'm sure she has a great relationship. I don't think wives and husbands act this way. Can you imagine a wife not telling her husband who she is voting for? Have you ever heard anything like that? Even if you have a terrible, bad relationship, you will tell your husband. This is ridiculous, very stupid – said the Republican presidential candidate.

The material with Julia Roberts was prepared by the non-governmental organization Vote Common Good, which supports Harris. According to the New York Times, Democrats hope that he will attract more women with moderate Republican or independent views to the ballot box and vote for Harris, even if they are surrounded by staunch Trump supporters. Conservatives did not like the spot, who said it showed the breakdown of family ties, the newspaper adds.
The issue of voters' gender became one of the key issues in this campaign. No wonder – if America were a womanthe elections would have already been decided. As follows from polls, Kamala Harris clearly leads among female voters (55 to 43%).
