Madonna hits the polls with daughter Lourdes, joining celebrities in election showdown

Madonna, the iconic “Like a Virgin” singer and champion of voter engagement since her groundbreaking “Rock the Vote” campaign in 1990, made her presence felt at the polls this week, accompanied by her daughter, Lourdes Leon. The 66-year-old pop legend was captured walking alongside her 28-year-old model daughter, both dressed in effortlessly cool attire as they cast their ballots in the pivotal showdown between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, which favored Trump.

Dressed in a sleek dark overcoat, with an “Unstoppable” trucker hat and bold sunglasses, Madonna looked like the trailblazing star she’s always been, exuding cool and confident. Lourdes, a mirror of her mother’s style, opted for a black top paired with bold camouflage joggers, giving a modern twist to their coordinated look.

“You really put up a fight against all the odds that were already stacked against you! You never accepted defeat as an option which says so much about your strength and about your heart. You really wanted better for ALL of us! This may not mean much but I am so proud of you! No one has ever made me change my mind and you did!” the rapper admitted.

“I never thought I would see the day that a woman of color would be running for the President of the United States, but you have shown me, showed my daughters and women across the country that anything is possible. Thank you for being an example, thank you for being empowered, thank you for being a real example of what the American dream should be!” the star concluded.
