Taxpayer-funded National Public Radio underlined how firmly it's on Team Kamala by airing a story on Monday's Morning Edition hyping the notion that women were secretly voting for Kamala despite their pig-headed Trump-backing husbands. The headline was "Meet the conservative women who are keeping their votes for Kamala Harris a secret."

Never mind that if they're voting for her, they're not conservative.

NPR reporter Sarah McCammon -- the one who wrote about Trump and leaving the "white evangelical church" in her book The Exvangelicals -- granted anonymity to these secret Harris backers, like their families are so broken they can't discuss voting for socialists.

First came "T," a retiree in Wisconsin, who "asked for anonymity to discuss how living in a politically divided household is affecting her marriage of more than 40 years. T says she mailed her absentee ballot from another family member's home to avoid a confrontation with her husband."

Wow, that guy sounds abusive! "T" says it's not like he would stop her from voting Democrat, but "I can't deal with the animosity." Now imagine if he finds out you made him look like a jerk on the radio from coast to coast. 

McCAMMON: T says she'd voted Republican her entire adult life, until Trump became the nominee in 2016. She describes Trump as misogynistic and a buffoon.

T: And my husband will say it's just what the media has fed me, and I'm saying, uh-uh. I watched it with my own two eyes. I listened to it. No.

Then there was "K," who was appalled when Trump held up a Bible in 2020 in front of an Episcopal church near the White House "after calling police to shut down a protest." That's what the media fed these women.

K "lives in a red state in the Midwest and asked that we use her first initial because of fear of losing her job." Losing her job? Where does she work? It wasn't explained. 

K says her husband doesn't suspect. "He assumes that I'm voting Republican. I just listen to him talk about his views, and I just nod my head and go, mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And I'm thinking, yeah, and my nieces have less bodily autonomy rights at their age than I had." See, that's not a "conservative."

McCammon then touted the Julia Roberts-narrated ad for Vote Common Good encouraging women to vote against their right-wing husbands. The only balance in the story came from Charlie Kirk saying women who vote secretly "undermine their husbands." He called it "gross." Then an academic explained that many women are secretly voting, mostly for more abortions. 

Then there was "A."

McCAMMON: A, who's 35 and lives in Illinois, asked that we use only her first initial because she's worried about backlash from her religious community. She says she voted for Trump in the last two elections, but, after a period of soul-searching, decided to vote for Harris this time....A says she's keeping her vote a secret from her boyfriend and especially her father, a committed Republican. A says she has daughters, and she thought about them when she was making her decision."

A: And as I was filling in that rectangle, it was, like, this moment of, like, hell yeah, girl. Like, you did something so powerful for yourself and for a lot of women.

McCammon concluded on a hopeful note, for liberals: "It's impossible to know how many people, especially women, are secretly voting for Harris. But even a small number of silent voters in either direction could make a big difference on Tuesday."
