Jennifer Aniston endorsed Joe Biden, and encouraged fans not to vote for Kanye West, according to Fox News.
“#IVOTED for @joebiden and @kamalaharris. I dropped my ballot off, and I did it early.”
Aniston shared her thoughts on an Instagram post.
“I voted for them because right now this country is more divided than ever.”
“Right now, a few men in power are deciding what women can and can’t do with their own bodies. Our current President has decided that racism is a non-issue.”
“He has repeatedly and publicly ignored science … too many people have died,” the “Friends” star added.
“Your daughters, the LGBTQ+ community, our Black brothers and sisters, the elderly with health conditions, and your future kids and grandkids (who will be tasked with saving a planet that our leadership refuses to believe is hurting).”
“PS – It’s not funny to vote for Kanye. I don’t know how else to say it. Please be responsible,” she added.
From Fox News:
Aniston, 51, has become increasingly more political this year, due to her disagreements with President Trump and his administration. She’s made it abundantly clear on social media that Joe Biden is her presidential pick, and she confirmed that on Friday with an Instagram post.
Additionally, the “Morning Show” star asked her Instagram followers to “really consider” who will be affected “most” by the 2020 chosen candidate.
Aniston then discouraged voters from supporting Kanye West in the election. The 43-year-old rapper stunned Americans and his fans alike when he announced on Independence Day his decision to run for the Oval Office against President Trump and Biden.
After announcing his presidential bid, West encountered some difficulty in getting his name on multiple state ballots. While the Yeezy founder has made the ballot in several states, others, including Virginia and Arizona, have blocked his candidacy. A federal election filing from September showed that he’s spent nearly $6 million on the race.
