Jodie Sweetin is using her voice through a daring new ad on Instagram, where she makes her views on politics known to her followers. The 42-year-old joined the likes of Jerry O’Connell and Jeff Ross to bring this campaign to life as they urge their followers to vote right this election season.
Many fans thought it was admirable that Jodie would use her platform to address real issues about American lives. Some others found the video offensive and cringed, as the political message was against their conservative views.
What was Jodie Sweetin’s bold political ad about?

Jodie’s message centered around women’s reproductive rights, which have been a big debate lately. The satire-style clip showed Jodie and Jerry congratulating their daughter for getting into college when suddenly Stork Ross shows up with a baby, ruining her career plans.
A disappointed Jodie then blames her husband, who immediately admits to not voting, hence the ripple effect in their lives. The next scene was between Charlotte McKinney and Samm Levine, who both get a storky delivery whilst breaking up, with the big bird saying they should have voted pro-choice when they had the chance.
Reactions to Jodie Sweetin’s political satire
Jodie’s message, which Ross called a “public cervix announcement” with every pun intended, was quite clear as she encouraged her followers to vote pro-choice. Ross quipped that men should ordinarily not have a say in women’s reproductive matters. “What do you people think ?” he asked, urging viewers to engage and share the video for other voters to see.
Those who already voted proudly announced they favored candidate Kamala Harris, who has promised abortion rights for women. Some found it ridiculous that people chose her based on this singular perk and not her track record as Vice President of the outgoing government. “Imagine voting on someone because you can’t kill babies. Yikes how morbid,” another argued.
