What celebrities are voting for Joe Biden?
There are several members of America’s elite who have spoken out in support of Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden.
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson once addressed the candidate warmly, saying “Joe, you’ve had such an incredible career, and you’ve led with such great compassion, heart, drive, and soul.”
Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry and celebrity chef wife Ayesha Curry have both endorsed Joe at the virtual DNC earlier this year, saying that Biden would ensure a “safe, healthy, happy” nation for their children.
Rap superstar Cardi B is voting for Biden because she “cannot see the next step of America being ran [sic] by number 45,” the rapper said in April, referencing President Trump, the 45th president.
Songwriter, DJ, and producer Diplo appeared at the “Get Up, Stand Up!” virtual dance party fundraiser for the Biden campaign in early July.
When is the presidential election?
Election day is on November 3.
The US 2020 election is determined by the popular vote within the states and the electoral college; once votes are in, the president is announced that night or the following morning.
The winner of the 2020 presidential election is scheduled to be inaugurated on January 20, 2021.
What celebrities are voting for Trump?
Twitter is awash with claims that Chris Pratt, 41, supports Donald Trump.
A Newsweek fact check claims “a major telltale of Pratt’s politics” is the fact that he didn’t take part in an Avengers’ fundraiser for Joe Biden.
Avengers stars including Mark Ruffalo, Zoe Saldana, Scarlett Johansson, Paul Rudd, Chris Evans, Don Cheadle and Robert Downey, Jr. urged fans to vote blue.
Ruffalo said: “Vote Democrat. Straight down the ticket.”
Newsweek says: “Evans has never openly discussed his political views on social media and CNN reports that he donated money to Barack Obama’s campaign back in 2012.
“However, he is also on record saying he doesn’t support either side of the Democrat/Republican divide.”
Similarly, Matthew McConaughey has spoken about Trump in past interviews but has never openly supported the President of the United States.
