Former NASCAR and IndyCar star Danica Patrick made headlines after announcing she will vote for the first time in her life, casting her ballot for former US President Donald Trump in the upcoming 2024 presidential election . Patrick, 42, shared the revelation during a town hall in Greensboro, North Carolina, where she appeared alongside Trump’s running mate, Senator JD Vance (R-Ohio), as reported by the New York Post.
"I’ve never voted before, but this time around, I have to vote," Patrick said on stage. "It’s that important." Vance quickly interjected, confirming Patrick's support. "You’re voting for us, right?" he asked, to which Patrick replied, “1,000%. If I could vote twice, I would.” Vance then said, “We don’t do that, we’re Republicans. We only vote legally, one time.”
Patrick, who currently serves as a Formula One analyst, also encouraged the audience to bring a friend to vote, suggesting it as a way to “vote twice the legal way"
Patrick has become an outspoken supporter of Trump’s re-election bid, moderating panels at Trump campaign events like the "Reclaim America Tour" in Las Vegas. There, she shared the stage with notable figures like former US Representative Tulsi Gabbard and ex-presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr, both of whom have endorsed Trump.
Beyond the campaign trail, Patrick has drawn attention for her debatable endorsements, including expressing admiration for Andrew Tate , a popular figure facing serious charges of rape and human trafficking. Patrick defended her support of Tate, saying on social media, "I love people who say what they want, regardless of the outcome. And I think he’s right a lot."
In addition to her political views, Patrick remains an important figure in motorsports, becoming the only woman to win an IndyCar race at the 2008 Indy Japan 300.
