Election tensions are high in America right now, and nothing highlights this more than response to the “cancel out your vote trend”.

Millions of Americans hit the polls today casting their votes for either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump.

There’s also a growing trend on social media, with people sharing that their motivation to head to the polls is to cancel out their partner’s or a family member’s vote that they disagree with.

There are people joking they are voting to cancel out any man’s vote who has always said he just isn’t “political” because they claim that is code for secretly being a Trump supporter.

There’s also people posting they are voting to cancel out the people voting for Harris in swing states.

There are also women posting that they are on their way to vote to cancel out their husband, brother, or dad’s vote.

It’s become such a mainstream thing that Donald Trump’s former campaign manager, KellyAnne Conway, has revealed her vote should “cancel” out her daughter’s vote.

KellyAnne’s daughter, Claudia, is a Democrat, but she posted on social media that she was heading to the polls with her conservative mum.

Claudia, 20, has over 1.5 million followers on TikTok.

When KellyAnne worked directly for Donald Trump between 2017 and 2020, Claudia routinely went viral for disagreeing with Trump’s actions and politics.

“Hope everyone got a chance to vote today,” Claudia wrote.

As the two headed to the polls together, KellyAnne joked, “Buddy and I are going to cancel each other’s votes,” while Claudia gave the thumbs up.

The response to the clip was largely positive with people happy to see the mother and daughter getting along despite their political differences.

“Nature is healing. So happy to see both you and your mom together,” one commented.

“I’m so proud of you,” another remarked.

“Your mum and you! Love that you can still go and vote together,” someone else praised.

In general, though, the response to people sharing that they disagree with their loved ones about politics has just highlighted the divide and tensions in America.

One social media creator went viral for sharing how she “vibed” after celebrating cancelling out someone who voted for Harris.

Some people loved it and praised her for voting for Trump but others just commented the name “Kamala” under her video in protest.

Another creator went viral for saying she didn’t need to cancel out her friend’s votes because “hot girls vote red” and all that resulted in was far too many people that were voting for Harris making gross comments about the women’s bodies.

Social media creator Lory Valadez caused a stir when she posted that she was “on her way to cancel out her husband’s vote” and then added she was voting for the girls.

People weren’t impressed that she was willing to stay in a marriage with man who would vote for Mr Trump.

“Why is he still your husband?” one asked

Ms Valadez replied that they got together way before Donald Trump entered politics and he still “respects my opinion and vote”, but that wasn’t enough to appease people.

“Divorce, he does not care about your rights,” one wrote.

“This isn’t the flex you think it is,” another critiqued.

“Everybody saying leave him in the comments. We need more women that are married to stand up for ourselves and vote. Be proud about it and stop hating on their relationships” someone else advised.

Ms Valadez called out the critics and said the whole reason she was posting about having different political views than her husband was to encourage other women to vote for the candidate they wanted.

“It’s OK to have a different opinion than your partner and feel empowered to vote,” she said.
