At the Turning Point USA Women’s Leadership Summit in San Antonio, Texas, several women expressed a willingness to give up their right to vote in favor of a more conservative country. Alexus DeGraaf stated, 'I vote the same way he does,' referring to her husband, and indicated she would be comfortable relinquishing her voting rights. Savannah Stone, a conservative influencer, suggested that there should be one vote per household, emphasizing the husband's choice. Brooke Foxworthy echoed similar sentiments, stating she would trust her husband to vote on behalf of their household. Despite these views, reports from The Atlantic and CBC noted that many attendees still supported women's suffrage. The summit was led by Erika Kirk, widow of the late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. The event also featured discussions linking the idea of restricting women's voting rights to broader themes of voting restrictions, as indicated by the presence of 'No Voter ID, No Vote' stickers. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth shared a video of pastor Doug Wilson advocating against women voting, reflecting a growing sentiment among some factions of the Christian Right.
