Several women attending the Turning Point USA Women’s Leadership Summit told CBC News they would be willing to give up their rights to vote if it meant that the U.S. would turn more right wing:
[Conservative Christian influencer Savannah Stone] says she doesn’t think women should vote, and that the U.S. should adopt a one-vote-per-household election system.
Women tend to support more liberal candidates, she argues, so changing the voting system would result in a more Christian and conservative America.
“That’s just one of the opinions that I hold, because I think that it would be better for society,” she said.
“Now, is that a hill I’m going to die on and run for office and try to complete? No,” she said. “That’s Ideal Savanna’s world; that’s not our current world.”
Several women at the conference told CBC News that they’d be open to the idea, even if it meant losing their own right to vote — all in the pursuit of a more conservative country.
