Trend underlines vast gender divide as election approaches, as experts say some women face pressure to ā€˜toe the lineā€™ politically at home.

A TikTok trend of women ā€œcanceling outā€ their partnersā€™ votes highlights a gender divide in the 2024 election, with many young women supporting Kamala Harris while their male partners back Trump.

Conservatives like Charlie Kirk and Jesse Watters criticize these efforts, claiming they undermine family values.
