The beautiful british actress Emma Watson who is standing up for gender equality may not be able to vote in the upcoming U.S. presidential election and other candidates that she considered as second home. However, the Harry Potter alumnus encourages everyone to cast and exercise the right to vote. Watson describes the election as "excruciating" because of everything that happened during the phase of Election days.

Watson having been busy working on women's right nationally and globally. Being the outspoken feminist and the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador believes that the next president will be able to make decisions about the woman's choice body, how they should be treated at school or work, and the equality of women and men at the human rights. Watson also said that the decision that the new president choose will affect how young people create the ideas of gender.

"At times, politics may seem disillusioning, filled with rhetoric and smokescreens," Watson starts at the essay. "However, regardless of our personal beliefs, it can't be denied that the result of the upcoming US presidential election will have ripple effects around the world and impact, in one way or another, the lives of millions and millions of people."

The gorgeous Harry Potter star said that based on head polls counts statistically, the report states that 70 million women have cast the ballots on the last US presidential election comparing to 60 million men.

Even though Watson dropped the name of Hillary Clinton for supporting the UN Women's HeForShe last year, she still doesn't specifically choose a presidential candidate between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. She seemed giving the support for presidential election bet for Hillary Clinton as stated:

At a talk at the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan in September, she said: "I don't know if I would have believed you if you had told me two years ago before I made my HeforShe speech that we might have the first female president of the United States."
