With just hours remaining on Election Day, Donald Trump's senior advisor was pleading with supporters to get more men to the polls.

The last-minute appeals were posted on the social media platform X by Trump advisor Stephen Miller on Tuesday afternoon: "If you know any men who haven't voted, get them to the polls," Miller urged.

Minutes later, Miller reposted a claim that an "after-work surge of men is occurring" in battleground states and repeated his appeal. "Get every man you know to the polls," he said.

The campaign's emphasis on the male vote is not new for Trump, who recently promised to "protect women, whether they like it or not," and has courted young male voters over podcast appearances -- to say nothing of conduct and policies critiqued as anti-women.

"When we said we wanted mail-only voting, we meant male — M A L E," former Trump staffer John McEntee joked in a recently resurfaced video.

The focus on male voters is echoed by preliminary polling results, which have revealed consistent gender gaps in voting preference. Democratic candidate Kamala Harris was polling strong among females in her bid to become the first female U.S. president.
