John McCain’s daughter, Meghan McCain, has had quite a few controversial political opinions over the years, to say the least, but her latest one has nearly everyone peeved.
In a recent interview on the iHeart podcast Next Questions With Katie Couric, Meghan revealed that she did vote for the 2024 Presidential election, but not for Vice President Kamala Harris or former President Donald Trump. And no, not a third-party candidate either.
The View alum voted for her late father, John, who died in 2018 from cancer.

“I wrote in my dad. Is that cliche? I’m so sorry, I know, I know. It’s so… people are mad at me. People are so mad at me, Katie. I mean, mad that I didn’t vote either way,” she said on the podcast. “And I was like, I have such Christian guilt at night, and I don’t want anything on my conscience with any of it.”
That’s right, she cast a vote for her late father as a write-in for president on her 2024 ballot. And we’ll break down why she didn’t vote for Trump or Harris.
In the same interview, she talked about how she couldn’t vote for Trump, saying, “I just can never vote for Trump. I can’t do it. I could never explain it to my children.” She’s spoken against the Capital riot attack on Jan 6, and per People, she even wanted the government to invoke the 25th Amendment to force Trump out.
As for Harris, Meghan has spoken against her many times this year. On her own podcast, Citizen McCain, she talked about how she didn’t like the way Harris spoke, and that she set “feminism back 10 years.”
“She sounds like stoner, like a 19-year-old stoner in college who’s high at 3 a.m. She makes me so uncomfortable. I don’t like watching her. I don’t like listening to her,” she said via OK. “If anything, Vice President Harris has proven to me that maybe a woman can’t be Vice President. I actually think she’s setting feminism back 10 years.”
