For his part, Harry, who is not a US citizen, noted that he will not be able to vote this year and acknowledged that he has never voted in the United Kingdom, as royalty is expected to remain politically neutral.
However, he urged Americans to be aware of the type of information they consume both online and offline.
"It is time to not just reflect, but to act. As we approach this November, it is vital that we reject hate speech, misinformation and negativity online," he said.

In August, the 39-year-old Markle had been more outspoken and called for "change" on the occasion of the November US presidential elections, in which Trump is seeking re-election.
"I think that if they participate in that event with us it is because they are mobilized and motivated to see the change that we all need and deserve," said Harry's wife during a meeting organized by the NGO 'When we all vote', co-founded by the former First Lady
Michelle Obama
, who tries to encourage Americans to vote.
Earlier this year, the couple gave up their royal titles and recently moved to California with their one-year-old son Archie.
