Prince Harry has urged US citizens to "reject hate speech" and vote in the country's upcoming presidential election.

He made the remarks alongside his wife, Meghan, in a US television broadcast.

A spokesperson for the couple said the comments did not refer to any specific political party or candidate, but were instead "a call for decency".

Voting for the next US president, with candidates including Donald Trump and Democrat Joe Biden, is on 3 November.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex appeared in a live video in what appeared to be their California home as part of the Time 100 - a list compiled by Time magazine to celebrate the world's most influential people.

It was their first joint TV appearance since they ceased being working members of the Royal Family in March.

"As we approach this November, it's vital that we reject hate speech, misinformation and online negativity," the duke said as he sat on a bench alongside Meghan.

He also reminded Americans to be discerning in the content they consumed online.

"When the bad outweighs the good, for many, whether we realise it or not, it erodes our ability to have compassion and our ability to put ourself in someone else's shoes," he said.

"Because when one person buys into negativity online, the effects are felt exponentially. It's time to not only reflect, but act."

The 36-year-old duke said he would not be voting in the election because he was not a US citizen, adding that he had never voted in UK elections either.

Keeping a low profile as usual :hehe:

Eh. Mrs Windsor is American, so of course she has an opinion about the election.

I love the way they’ve said to reject hatred and people have automatically gone ‘they’re telling people to vote against Trump, silence them!!’

Like, at least people seem to know what he is

One thing i like about trump is he doesn't wear sunglasses...unlike biden who thinks hes tom cruise.

yeah, that's decided it for me :laugh:

Just Trump telling everyone he intends to keep power regardless of the result.

Yes Biden says he will use the CIA
to Remove him

Do you think it's right that he might have to?

It is possible

CIA punching through the FBI Trump backers

So do you think it's right that he might have to?

If y'all needed another reason to vote for him, this is it

wow the neverending Trump keeps having digs at Meghan Markle mess


where he feels sad for Harry, i feel sad for Melania having to live around orange moron 24/7, poor girl :(

They need a Proper Election.

Not a Corrupt one

Nothing Wrong with Not liking her
as She Attacked Trump First.

if Trump wins it fair and square without help by russians this time around

i won't complain


but i think if everything goes fair and square, it will be a very close call but this is just my opinion

Biden with almost the same support what Obama had, and Trump with his hardcore fanbase

He's threatening a corrupt one. There is no reason to think people voting is corrupt, apart from trump saying it is. No evidence.

Sure

Trump attacking another black woman? Shocking

But She Attacked him First.

Arista fighting for Trumps honour.

Did she mention his name? No.

She’s allowed to tell people to vote, it’s very telling though that she says to reject hatred and people naturally assume she’s attacking Trump, is shows what people really think of him

john mccain hasn't been attacking trump much since he died, but it hasn't stopped trump attacking him

I think he's got you there, Arista.

How anyone can talk down trumps obvious play for autonomy is unbelievable. .. Surely even the reddest necks won't go for that in the US?
