Can my husband find out who I am voting for in the Presidential Election?"
Olivia Dreizen Howell, the founder of a website to help women get back on their feet after a breakup or divorce, tweeted last week, "We've been getting this question a lot," so she followed up with some facts. As the Washington Post confirmed with experts, the answer is simple: "No; it will be public record that you voted, but not how you filled out your ballot."
The GOP ticket is led by a sexual predator who a jury found "'raped' [journalist E. Jean Carroll] as many people commonly understand the word 'rape,'" the judge in the case wrote. His running mate, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, has called for a national abortion ban, wrote the forward to a book that denounced contraception for making pregnancy "seem like an optional and not natural result of having sex," and repeatedly called women who haven't given birth "sociopathic" and "childless cat ladies."
Meanwhile, the Democratic ticket is led by a woman who chose "Freedom" by Beyoncé as her campaign song, and has dispensed with the mealy-mouthed language about abortion rights to declare she stands for "the freedom of a woman to make decisions about her own body." Her running mate, Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, her running mate, has decried "weird" MAGA Republicans of the "he-man woman haters’ club."

This is an issue with voting by mail in any country.
What are you talking about
When both spouses vote together by mail at home, one may want to see what the other is submitting and condition them to vote the way they want.
There are a lot of solutions to that problem. Fill out your vote when the other isn't home, vote in person, leave your spouse, etc. Doesn't seem like much of a problem to me
haha, leave your spouse :)
But really, I can see an abusive overbearing or just manipulative family member definitely doing this. It may not be statistically significant enough to impact an election, but there is no way to ensure there was no coercion.
Jesus Christ I'm not going down that rabbit hole. I realize the most dangerous thing an abused person can do is try to leave the relationship, but that's only one of the several options I listed. I genuinely don't understand why you're criticizing mail in ballots; my best guess is that you've seen enough far right propaganda that you genuinely think giving more people more access to voting is a bad thing.
It's not an agenda against mail-in ballots, it's just a minor flaw I noticed with some friends that is relevant to the title, but for some reason I seem to have offended the gods of voting turnout by stating it in a public forum. Seriously, some people perk their ears for the littlest reason.
...But that's ok...sometimes one can trigger the immune response in a community by saying something that could be misconstrued as contrarian.
