Alabama Barker shared a message to her fans and explained why she’s not interested in voting during the upcoming election.
Alabama, the daughter of Travis Barker and and former beauty queen Shanna Moakler recently went on Instagram Live to tell her followers that she won’t be voting next month, including for candidates like Donald Trump or Kamala Harris. “It’s kinda immature if I talk about it and I’m not fully educated, but I do have an opinion, and I’ll keep it to myself,” Alabama said in the video.

“Not voting isn’t crazy, in my opinion, at all because if I don’t feel like I have the exact education for what I’m voting for, how is it right for me to vote for something I’m not completely educated on?” Barker also added that she could take the time to educate herself but feels like it’ll be pointless. “Why am I doing that if I genuinely really don’t care? I’m just honest. I don’t care to vote if I don’t know exactly what’s going on. I don’t think that’s wrong. And I completely stand on that, and I stand by it,” she said.
“We all know this. You can’t vote until you’re 18. I’ve never voted. If I don’t want to vote, I don’t have to vote. And if I don’t want to be in politics, I don’t have to be in politics,” She stated that she doesn’t want to take the time to do any “research” or “educate” herself on a topic that doesn’t capture her interest.
“I do have an opinion,” she again noted. “I have an opinion on what I feel is right because of what I’ve been seeing. And just, like, I feel like one of the voters is just a mess. I mean, one of the — sorry — one of the people, the runners, [the] candidates. See? I’m telling you, I’m not educated. I’m a little bit stupid.”
