Women are wavering in Trump County,USA

TERRE HAUTE, Ind.—A late model Cadillac Escalade—in a paint hue resembling Donald Trump’s coiffure, and sporting a large “Trump-Pence 2016” decal—rolled into the parking lot of Pizza City around lunchtime here on a cool October Wednesday. The doors opened, and out stepped the top three members of Trump’s Indiana campaign: Vice Chair and Communications Director Tony Samuel, Chairman Rex Early and State Director Suzanne Jaworowski.
They were here to meet Trump supporters at a rah-rah, get-out-the-vote powwow. It was the first day of early voting in Indiana, and Trump’s Indiana team had come to Vigo County to rally the faithful—and, if they were lucky, maybe swing some late deciders in the swingiest of swing counties.

Among them was 73-year-old Bertha Pearman, a Terre Haute resident who had registered to vote for the first time in her life that day. Spurred by Trump’s letter-to-Penthouse-like remarks, Pearman had had enough, and planned to vote for Clinton. Earlier this month, her husband passed away from an aneurysm, but her son, in town from his home in Maryland to help her sort out final wishes and clean the house, had driven her to the courthouse to register to vote. Yes, there were pressing decisions to be made and affairs to be settled. But voting in this election mattered, and she would be darned if she weren’t going to vote for the first woman for president. She had waited all this time to vote because she never felt like her vote counted. Not this year, though. And so it was off to the courthouse.

“With the things that come out of Trump’s mouth, it makes you sick,” said Pearman, the mother of three children and a former retail clerk. “It’s pretty sad that you have to censor the debates from our children. I don’t want someone like that running the country.”
