The ad, created by the progressive \u200bevangelical group Vote Common Good, features \u200ca woman who looks back\u2062 at her husband while heading to cast her vote. As she chooses a candidate, she reassures her husband that \u200bshe made the &#8220;right choice.&#8221; The voice-over by Roberts emphasizes that \u2062women have \u2062the right to vote as they \u200dwish, with no one knowing their choice. Critics argue the ad is condescending and demeaning to married women, expressing disappointment at Roberts&#8217; participation. The ad&#8217;s release comes just days before Election Day, reflecting high stakes for both campaigns trying to sway voters.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Julia Roberts under fire for ad inviting women to vote differently from husbands<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_1869057\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Actress <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/celebrities\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Julia Roberts<\/a> voiced a <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/campaign\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">campaign ad<\/a> that is under fire, as some have said it is condescending to <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/marriage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">married women<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>There are only five days left until Election Day, with both <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\">campaigns feeling immense pressure<\/a> for every final strategy they implement to win over voters.
