You know that, and I know that! Apparently it’s not common knowledge, otherwise this post wouldn’t even exist.

Frankly it doesn’t matter that the vote is actually secret if the spouse is doubtful of that secrecy. An abused person may vote against their conscience on even the chance of repercussions.
