Ellen DeGeneres weighed in on the upcoming election while in Washington to accept the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor on Monday.

“Well, I am certainly hoping our president stays put,” DeGeneres said on the red carpet before the Kennedy Center event.

And what if Mitt Romney wins instead? “If you’re a woman, you should be very, very scared of that, for many reasons,” she said. “And obviously as a gay person he doesn’t believe in me having the same rights, so of course I’m not happy about that.”

DeGeneres added that “as a woman who wants to have the choice to do what she wants to do with her own body,” she’s especially concerned about Obama losing.
