These People Are Hiding Whom They're Actually Voting For From Their Spouses And Family

"If I told my wife I voted for him, she would resent me."
Earlier this week, while stumping for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in a Detroit suburb, former Republican Rep. Liz Cheney made the case for Harris to suburban Republican and independent women.
At one point, she assured them that no one ― not your husband, not your family ― will know who you vote for.
“If you’re at all concerned, you can vote your conscience and not ever have to say a word to anybody,” Cheney said as she sat side by side with Harris. “And there will be millions of Republicans who do that on Nov. 5.”
That’s true: Whether or not you voted is public record, but how you voted in local, state or national elections is kept a secret; there’s no official way to search for how someone voted.
This election cycle is so heated and hyperpartisan, some people say they’re planning to do just what Cheney suggested: Hide whom they’re really voting for from their spouses and family.
