Democrats stand to gain significantly if the draft Supreme Court decision that was leaked to Politico Monday night overturning Roe v. Wade goes into effect.
According to a YouGov poll published this week, the overturning of constitutionally protected abortion rights is twice as likely to activate Democratic voters in the midterms as it is Republicans.
Respondents to the poll were asked “If the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, would that make you more likely or less likely to vote in the next Congressional elections in November?”
Among Democrats, 47 percent said they are “More likely” to vote in the midterms if Roe is overturned, with 42 percent responding “No change” and only 1 percent answering “Less likely.”
For Republicans, only 25 percent said they are “More likely” to vote in the midterms if Roe is overturned, with 60 percent responding “No change” and 4 percent answering “Less likely.”
Among independents, 27 percent said they are “More likely” to vote in the midterms if Roe is overturned, with 54 percent responding “No change” and only 6 percent answering “Less likely.”
