Former NASCAR and IndyCar driver turned Formula 1 broadcaster Danica Patrick has made a shock revelation after revealing she had cast her vote in the 2024 US election.
Former President Donald Trump and current Vice-President Kamala Harris are set to do battle in the polls next month, with the majority of the US public set to cast their votes on November 5th.
Danica Patrick makes shock reveal in pro-Trump message
In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Patrick shared an image of herself wearing a 'proud American' t-shirt, proudly displaying her 'I voted' sticker, too.
Surprisingly, though, for somebody who has been so vocal in recent months, Patrick also revealed that it was the first time she had ever voted in her life despite being 42 years old.
"I voted today, for the first time. 🗳️," Patrick's post began.
"I made a rule for myself that if I didn’t vote I could not have an opinion about the outcome, because I didn’t earn that right. Not this time."
Patrick went on to reveal who she had voted for and why, with no big shocks: "I voted for @realdonaldtrump and I can’t wait to have him make America great again!"
