Vice President Harris is seeking to maximize turnout from women voters in the final days before the election in hope the critical voting block can carry her over the finish line.

While much of the conversation in the closing days of the campaign has surrounded Harris’s soft support among men, Democrats argue that women have the chance to boost Harris. They point to the voting bloc’s role in securing Democratic wins in the 2018, 2020 and 2022 elections.

But Republicans remain skeptical that women, particularly suburban women in swing states, will be a shoo-in for Harris, pointing to concerns over the economy.

“Kamala Harris is positioned to win this election because of women,” said Jessica Mackler, the president of EMILY’s List, a group dedicated to electing pro-choice Democratic women to office.

1. I'll be there at the polling place for her, for me, for all those I love.

2. I don't think republicans understand that a lot of us went through this

back in the 1960's-80's. Do they think we've forgotten how hard it was to even enter the buildings, much less crack the ceilings? We are NOT going back, only to have to watch our daughters, nieces, granddaughters etc fight all those battles again.

Can we stand for something?
Now is the time to face the wind
Now ain't the time to pretend
Now is the time to let love in
