Vice President Kamala Harris spoke to a crowd of 30,000 in Houston, emphasizing reproductive freedom as a key campaign issue. With the election just days away, Harris called on voters to support her and other Democrats to restore abortion protections. Gender divides are evident, with a majority of women supporting Harris while a majority of men support Donald Trump. Abortion and women’s rights are more important to women than men, according to a poll. However, some men, like Gilbert Landry, acknowledge the appeal of Trump’s message to men who feel pressure and lack opportunities. Landry believes men need to be more informed to make voting decisions. Concerns about women’s rights were also raised by Karen Landry, who opposed the policies overturning Roe v. Wade. Other men, like Joel Avendano, believe that women’s reproductive rights are also men’s issues and support Harris as a unifying candidate. Rueben Butler emphasized the importance of being informed about candidates and policies when voting, regardless of political affiliation. Harris encouraged men at the rally to support protecting women’s health. In the midst of a divisive political climate, Harris’s message highlights the importance of uniting across gender lines to protect women’s rights and promote informed decision-making in the upcoming election.
