Over 75% of Democratic voters support access to abortion for any reason, while bipartisan support is at the highest it’s been since the 1970s, according to a new Wall Street Journal-NORC poll published Monday.

Since the Supreme Court declared in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Center that abortion is not a constitutional right in June 2022, voters have weighed in on the issue at the state level, with pro-abortion advocates successfully passing seven ballot initiatives in the last year and a half. A poll found that support for abortion is reaching some of the highest levels seen since Roe v. Wade, with 77% of Democrats responding that they would support women having access to abortion for any reason, according to The Wall Street Journal.

Those numbers are up from 2016, when only 52% responded affirmatively to allowing abortion for any reason, according to the WSJ. Just over 50% of independents agreed, while Republican support came in much lower at 33%, down from 34.72% in 2021.

"Over 75% of Democratic voters support access to abortion for any reason..."

75%?
I'm actually surprised it's not higher.

Point of reference:
In the recent Ohio election to create a liberalized state constitutional amendment on abortion, something like 19% -- about one in five -- REPUBLICAN women voted for it.

Something to ponder.

The issue is actually going to become MORE influential in the 2024 elections, because numerous states are probably going to have public initiatives for liberalizing abortion on the ballots -- drawing liberal females out in droves.

Something else to ponder:
When the Supreme Court decided Dobbs, they didn't "hand the victory" to the right ... they handed it to The Party...

That 75% number includes 100% of Democrat men and 50% of Democrat women.

I was once arguing the issue of abortion with a male lefty, who of course argued that nobody had the right to contradict a mother:s choice, etc..

So I asked if aborting babies because they were female, and the culture valued female children less, must be acceptable too.

And he said no, that society couldn't permit that because it was an evil motive.  So all the crap about "choice" went right out the window.

Yep.

I tried that argument out once on another lefty -- that one a woman -- and same result.  They opposed legalizing sex-selective abortion, but couldn't articulate how that squared with the "right to control their own bodies".  Forcing them to choose between "a woman's right to choose" and sex-selective abortion is something they're not programmed to address, so it's kind of fun to trigger than and watch them tie themselves in knots.

The trick is to first get them to triple-down on the inviolability of a woman's right to control her own body.  Then spring sex-selective abortions on them.

I bet race and ethnicity selective ones would be fun too.

One of the first Project Veritas efforts involved calling up abortion clinics and asking if one could offer donations specifically for aborting black babies.  They all said "yes".

God have mercy on us.
As much as it pains me to say it, it's time for God's wrath. He's been quite merciful so far, and look where it's got us.

And I think we're starting to see that wrath play out in slow motion.
