They're not voting for Hillary, but either skipping the top of the ticket, voting third party, or writing in somebody.

lie to their husbands just to keep the peace at home with their Trumpee husband.
They will say they are voting Trump but will vote Hillary, third party, or leave Prez line blank.

During the GOTV in 12...I had more than one husband inform me he and his wife were voting for Romney...but the wife often came out as I was leaving and said she was voting for Obama or was standing behind him and shook her head as he said it.

My daughter's MIL and FIL, both Republicans, went at it months ago over Trump. She kept going on and on about what a Sexist he is and about his Trophy Wives. He kept trying to defend Trump, but she would have none of it, and said she is voting third party.

My daughter and I are both Dems and just stood there nodding and smiling at her.

that all these women focus on elections as much as we do. Plenty didn't tune in until after Labor Day and the first debate is where many are seeing him speak without a media filter for the first time. It wasn't a good impression. It's going to be the women who save this country from itself.
