The other day I got asked several times, “Why would I vote for this woman?” The jerk inside of me was like, “Ugh! Seriously?!” But then I realized this is a genuine question that deserves a respectful answer.
I’m not just voting for a “woman” - this woman aligns with my values. Women’s rights are non-negotiable for me—our right to our bodies, equality, and living without fear of discrimination. It’s about supporting someone who genuinely understands these issues from personal experience and deep empathy.
Equality isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a core value. Whether in the workplace, healthcare, or our communities, everyone deserves a fair shot and a seat at the table. Supporting women in leadership helps achieve true equality for all genders.
Human rights are universal and must be upheld for everyone, regardless of their background, beliefs, or identity. This includes standing firm for LGBTQ+ rights. Love is love, and everyone should have the freedom to love without fear of prejudice.
I believe in freedom of religion, respecting individuals’ rights to practice their faith—or not—without interference. It’s about celebrating diversity of thought and belief.
Is she perfect? NO! But none of us are. What matters is her commitment to justice and inclusivity. Voting for her is a statement about the kind of world I want for future generations.
If you’ve read this far, thank you. My beliefs are firm, but I welcome respectful conversations.
