Pattie Gonia Updates Stance on 2024 Presidential Election: Calls for Action from Kamala Harris

The drag artist, activist, and 2024 Out100 honoree Pattie Gonia has made headlines once again with her updated stance on the 2024 presidential election. As the race heats up between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, Gonia issued a powerful statement calling for Harris to address pressing issues like genocide in Gaza and ecocide to earn her support.

In a recent Instagram video, Gonia expressed her conflicted feelings about voting for Harris, stating that while she may not be the perfect candidate, she is the better choice compared to Trump. Gonia emphasized the need for Americans to demand more from their politicians and urged Harris to step up and do better if she wins the election.

When asked to elaborate on her updated stance, Gonia explained that voting is a strategic move rather than a declaration of love for a candidate. She highlighted the work of NDN Collective, an Indigenous-led organization that advocates for sustainable solutions on Indigenous terms, and emphasized the importance of protecting movements as sources of power.

Gonia also addressed the unauthorized usage of her likeness in an anti-transgender attack ad from Trump’s campaign earlier this year, stating that she and her team are exploring legal options to respond to the situation.

As the election draws near, Gonia’s message serves as a reminder of the complexities of American politics and the need for voters to critically evaluate their choices. To stay updated on Pattie Gonia’s work and upcoming events, visit her official website.
