What do you all think is the impact of abortion on the ballot in swing states. Women have leaned more towards Kamala. Even Republican women have come out for abortion/choice.

Here are the states with it on the ballot. I could see Arizona being the most influential because it has a total ban. However I sense Nevada could have an impact.
Arizona
Florida
Nevada
Colorado
Montana
South Dakota
New York
Nebraska
Maryland
Missouri

I think it’s hype and BS. Polls which rank the importance of specific issues have it well below gun rights on level of importance.

Also I think most people realize that if a D president was going to fix abortion nationwide it would have happened sometime in the last 2 years.

Hopefully women vote for the issue at hand and not for a dem candidate BECAUSE of abortion. But Liberal and moderate women vote on emotion and single issues. Will be a factor in some states.

But it’s not on the ballot

The Supreme Court has put this back into the states hands and the president has nothing to do with it

There are millions of women who are strictly voting in this election, for Kamala, because of abortion.

If Republicans lose, that will be the main reason.

But Republicans really wanna save Shaniqua’s illegitimate crack babies even if it costs them arguably the most important election in my lifetime.

Well it is on the ballot in the states I reference. What I am talking about is the relationship with the topic and voter turnout in those specific states. I recognize it isn’t a presidential item.

There were lessons to learn from '22...I'm not sure the Trump campaign noticed considering their abortion talk this campaign cycle. If you'll recall, the '22 midterms were supposed to be a giant red wave.


Tellin' ya...women are fricking pissed off. 'Member how pollsters had a tough time finding Trump voters because many had little or no voting record and didn't participate in polls and such? Well, the abortion issue is pulling a lot of those same types of voters out of the dark, this time they're women and want government out of their healthcare.

Not as much given the condition of the economy and matters pertaining to immigration

I think while a good portion will vote on abortion that this is being overhyped.

2022 still burns me. We chose to fight on that hill and we died on that hill.

Recent polls show "democracy" has overtaken the economy as the #1 issue. Bummer for Trump.

Sorry, my answer to you is yes it will have an impact probably significant in those states on liberal leaning women

But not on conservative women, they’ve done their research

If so, why is Trump crushing his 2020 results in both of those states?

I certainly pray that American women's grotesque conflation of exterminating the unborn for convenience and "healthcare" isn't determinative

What an awful story that would tell about us as a people

I know the media hypes it up and there sure are some fanatical baby murderers out there, but it's really low on the "what people care about" list. Economy is by far #1. Abortion would be like... top 20.
