10. A number of things are at play

Many Republican women were fine voting for Romney, McCain, and Bush. Most were even fine with trump - the 1st time. Do not underestimate Roe V Wade. Republican women also get abortions and not just for medical reasons. Add to that the venom the R's are spewing against women.

They also don't want to start an argument over something their husband will never know. So, they will vote for Harris then say, yes dear.

I am sure there are more than a few are not telling to avoid abuse or destroying their marriage. Yes, there are some men who will be pissed at the idea of their wife not voting how they want her to.
