In response to "Kansas primary turnout dwarfed 2020 primary turnout. 700,000+ turnout with votes left to count. Protecting the right to abortion " by TWuG

I think a lot of state races will be won because of this issue. Women will show up, imo.

This will definitely be a factor in the PA governor race. If Mastriano wins I'd say it's 80% that abortion will be banned in PA. -- nm - Dano Aug 3, 07:47 1

I’d be very interested in seeing the downballot effects of this before assuming that this kind of support translates into support for particular candidates -- nm* - znufrii Aug 3, 07:24 5
- If the Dems can craft the message correctly, every state race can be portrayed as a fight for abortion rights. -- nm - Inigo Aug 3, 07:47 3

    - This is HUGE. Reproductive rights are the same as equal rights. -- nm* - Spawn Aug 3, 07:57
- It's going to depend on how the "protect abortion" landscape looks in each state. Ballot measures may not - TWuG Aug 3, 07:28
if this is the result in *kansas,* imagine less red states. -- nm - amanda Aug 3, 07:22 2
- Kansas red is very much a blend of Southern Christian conservative and Western libertarians. - Barons Barons Barons Aug 3, 07:45
