The abortion problem is that everyone is beginning to recognize this stuff is largely bs. If abortion is murder, why is a 6 week ban better than an outright ban? Surely you should support a complete ban because saying "well we can kill the baby at 7 weeks but not 6 weeks" isn't logical. As long as Roe V Wade stood, that argument could be pushed to the side, ignored, or hidden because it didn't matter: the law of the land said abortion was legal. Now republicans have to come out and say what they really mean, and it's hurting them with normal people. It's also hurting them with pro-life people, when you think about it. Religious conservatives don't want any abortions happening. How do you tell them you've made an exception for babies who are x weeks old?
Vast majority of people are pro-choice and now that access to abortion determines on who your governor is, we're gonna see more and more republican losses. They'd be better off if we re-instate Roe v Wade in a few years tbh.
