Why don’t repubs counter abortion on the ballot with votes on boys playing girls sports?

If abortion on the ballot drives more libs to the polls, surely keeping males out of girls school sports, locker rooms, etc. would drive out more conservatives.

Because the GOP is clueless, weak, and spineless. Not to mention complicit.

Many Rinos like trannies

While going HAM on the issue could help neutralize abortion, many Turtle types dont really want tGOP in power

Because polling shows that abortion is in a majority of people's top 10 voting issues.
Boys playing girls sports isn't in the top 100.

Abortion motivates people. Most people don’t give a shite about youth sports on a political level.

You honestly think that a handful of trannys in sports is comparable in how it impacts the lives of average Americans. Over a million abortions took place last year alone. How many trannys are playing sports....like less than one hundred

That's because it hasn't been properly aligned by the GOP to correspond to the GOP agenda.

NBC poll 70+% want trans to compete as their sex assigned at birth

If course, this just means the left will push for gender to be assigned later in life, not based on chromosomes or genitalia.

No, if you go to a street corner with a notepad and ask people 'Who are you voting for?' And after they answer, you ask: 'And what is the main issue for you to vote for him?'
You will not get 'Guys playing in girls sports' even if you stand out there every day 24/7 until your drop dead of old age. It's a NOTHING issue in terms of a presidential election.

You shouldn’t be getting “abortion” either if it’s a state issue now

I don't vote on abortion. But some people do. It's called 'single issue voters.'
There are some republicans who would vote for Biden if he banned all abortions.
There are some democrats who would vote for Trump if he banned all aid to Israel.
There are ZERO voters who will decide based on transgender sports.

That's just your issue and people like you will already vote MAGA.

The focus should be on immigration and the economy, specifically inflation.

I feel the same way. When Youngkin made an issue of what was being taught to young children he won Virginia. I still think the main issues for republicans winning is the economy and the border, but having a bill in certain states on keeping boys from playing women’s sports could help.

The answer to most of the why don't Repubs do so and so is they have to be effective enough as communicators to force the message through the PPP (Progressive Propaganda Press) wall, and still have it resonate.

E.g., In an R vs D debate, the moderator will consistently ask the R:
Q: "Is there aaany circumstance everrrr when abortion should be allowed?"
R: "Rape, incest, and life of the mother."

An honest moderator would then ask the D:
Q: "Is there aaany circumstance everrrr when abortion should not be allowed?"

But instead, he asks the D to respond to the R position.

Republican POTUSes are presented as stupid. Dems as enlightened. Repubs cutting spending are stealing from the poor. Dems spreading the wealth around are doing the Lord's work, etc.

Breaking through is doable, but challenging, Rebubs are tasked to sail against the wind, while trying to beat Dems sailing with the wind
