Former NASCAR driver Danica Patrick used an Instagram post late Tuesday to encourage Americans to vote in the 2026 midterm elections and support President Donald Trump’s agenda, according to a Fox News report published Oct. 21.
Patrick, who supported Trump during the 2024 election, shared photographs from that campaign alongside her message. She described Trump as engaging and entertaining in conversation, and said he was interested in hearing people’s views. She also praised his attachment to the country and his leadership.
Patrick urged voters to help Trump and his staff during what she called the final half of his presidency. She argued that major political changes take time and encouraged supporters to remain involved after the 2024 election. Her post specifically called for Republicans to keep control of both chambers of Congress, saying that would sustain what she characterized as patriotic momentum.
The report places Patrick’s appeal roughly two weeks before the midterms and says the election was expected on Nov. 3. It presents her post as an effort to mobilize voters on Trump’s behalf. The source does not include a response from Trump, his campaign, or the Republican and Democratic parties.
The article also describes the broader election atmosphere as intense, citing campaign signs, advertising, calls, texts and fundraising requests. Those observations are part of the source’s commentary and do not establish how voters generally feel about the campaign season.
The supplied material is a single partisan news report, and it does not independently verify the Instagram post or provide election officials’ information about voting dates and procedures. Patrick’s statements about Trump and the expected effect of maintaining Republican control are her political views, not independently established findings.
