Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance is rallying voters with a firm message to stay in line and cast their ballots, emphasizing that the race’s outcome is still uncertain. Echoing former President Donald Trump’s call for Republicans to remain at polling stations, Vance reminded supporters that their votes could be crucial.
Vance took to social media, posting on X (formerly Twitter) with a message aimed at motivating Republicans to persevere: “POTUS speaks the truth. Stay in line. They have to let you vote. So far, things look good, but still very early. We could still win or lose this thing. Get out there and vote.” In his post, Vance used “POTUS,” an acronym typically reserved for the current President, though in this instance, he referred to Trump, reinforcing the former president’s influence in rallying GOP voters.
Trump, who remains a vocal presence among Republicans, had earlier shared a similar message. “Republicans: We are doing GREAT! Stay on Line. Do not let them move you. STAY ON LINE AND VOTE!” he posted, urging voters to hold their place in line to ensure their ballots are counted.
Both Vance and Trump’s messages highlight the intensity and high stakes of the election. By urging supporters to stay in line, they aim to counter any potential discouragement that could impact voter turnout, especially in areas where polling stations experience delays or heavy crowds.
Vance’s appeal reflects the GOP’s strategy to maximize turnout and push through any final obstacles in the voting process. For Republicans, every vote is crucial in a tightly contested race, where small margins could decide the outcome.
With Vance and Trump urging their base to remain steadfast at the polls, the GOP is making a final push to ensure its supporters’ votes are counted, reinforcing the commitment to seeing the race through to the very end.
