Lara Trump, co-Chairwoman of the Republican National Committee (RNC), emphasized the importance of voter turnout in the final hours leading up to the 2024 election. She believes that every vote is crucial in securing victory for former President Donald Trump against Vice President Kamala Harris. During an appearance on Fox News, Lara Trump stated that both she and RNC co-Chairman Michael Whatley have worked diligently to ensure election integrity, with extensive measures in place, including legal support and polling oversight in battleground states. She encouraged voters not to feel disheartened about the effectiveness of their votes, urging them to “swamp the vote” to make it “too big to rig.” Additionally, she suggested that Trump’s appeal among women and the increased support from Black voters could sway the election in his favor. Lara Trump’s comments also addressed perceptions about the support Trump receives from women in light of remarks made by billionaire Mark Cuban.

Republican National Committee co-Chairwoman Lara Trump underscored the need for voters to turn out on Election Day, as every vote is critical in the effort to propel former President Donald Trump to victory over Vice President Kamala Harris.

“It is about turnout, that is how we’re going to win this,” Lara Trump said on Fox News’s Sunday Morning Futures with Maria Bartiromo. “We always say, ‘Swamp the vote, make it too big to rig it.’ I don’t want a single person watching this right now to feel like, ‘Eh, it’s not going to matter if I vote in the election ’cause they’re going to cheat.’ We have gone above and beyond anything that has been done, including 500 attorneys on the ground in every battleground state, 5,000 poll watchers and poll workers in every battleground state, to ensure election integrity.”
The Trump campaign recently touted the Supreme Court’s decision to allow Virginia to purge an estimated 1,600 people from its voter rolls, which the state took in an effort to stop ineligible noncitizens from voting. The former president discussed this victory for the Republican Party at a rally in Salem, Virginia, on Saturday, praising both Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) and Attorney General Jason Miyares for their work.
Lara Trump also argued her father-in-law’s support among women is stronger than Vice President Kamala Harris’s support among men, who are “not turning out” for the Democratic presidential candidate. She added that Democrats are “panicking” over Trump’s growth in support among black voters, and that most voters, in general, are realizing their lives were better during Trump’s first term.
The former president’s daughter-in-law also addressed the recent comment from billionaire Mark Cuban, a Harris ally, when he said that Trump has no “intelligent women” supporting him. Lara Trump contended women supporting the former president are “smart enough” to look through the “smoke and mirrors” to come to the conclusion that Trump is the better candidate.
Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), Trump’s 2024 running mate, has also addressed Cuban’s comment, saying that he hopes the Harris campaign would stop “insulting the people they disagreed with” and instead focus on Harris’s record. However, he argued the campaign cannot do this because Harris does not have a record she can run on with voters.
With just two days left before the election, New York Times/Siena College polling data found six of the seven battleground states are toss-ups. However, pollster Nate Cohn said that the poll could underestimate Trump, similar to previous elections.
