The republicans took a bashing.
There seems to be a discrepency in what the polls are saying and how the parties are doing on the ground.

@shavixmir saidWhich republicans? Give me several examples.
Yes. But what happened on Tuesday?

Sometimes it is because an individual politician took an extreme position on an issue. For example, Tudor Dixon did not lose to Whitmer because Dixon was pro life. It was because she took an extreme position on abortion. No exceptions. She valued the unborn fetus more than the life of the mother. Rape victims would have to give birth to their rapist's baby.

But yes, Republicans got their asses rent asunder by a utility-pole-sized dildo on an "off year" election, which is something of a wonder. It appears that the GOP master plan to ban abortions and establish a perverted "V for Vendetta"-style theocracy is floundering to a degree that makes me ponder whether it wasn't a good thing, after all, that the Supreme Court overreached last year and struck down Roe v. Wade.
Ohio, a "red state," passed a ballot measure to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution. Weed got legalized, too.
A Democratic governor in the shoes-optional state of Kentucky (you must pronounce it "Ken-TUCK-eh") won reelection on the strength of a campaign that bashed Republicans for their extremist abortion agenda. That's like a San Francisco gay man becoming king of Saudi Arabia based on a popular vote.
Meanwhile Democrats took over both houses of the Virginia state legislature, throwing dick-shrivelingly cold water on the Republican governor's fantasies of running for president on a hard-right agenda.
Here in Pennsylvania the Democrats picked up another seat on the state supreme court. It's 5 Democrats against 2 Republicans now, so Republican wet dreams of banning abortion in the state transmogrified into piss-soaked mattresses come morning.
All in all, a grand day.

@shavixmir saidLocal elections? Nobody cares about what political party locals are part of. And isn't it only about 5 states that had major elections the other day? You act as if this was some sort of referendum against republicans.
No. I will not give you examples.

It seems like a majority of people really don't like this anti-abortion scam going on.

@soothfast saidIs it because some republican women want the right to get abortions too? Not all republicans are anti choice.

@shavixmir saidIt depends on how much choice is involved in abortions. Even many democrats are not for late term abortions. It all depends how pro life a candidate is. Even a republican woman is not crazy about being forced to have their rapist's baby.

There is no standard definition of "pro life". Do rapists have reproductive rights too?
Define pro life.

@metal-brain saidThere are many people on this forum, posting, I’d still have aborted if it was possible.

Unfortunately it’s the worst thing to happen to women in the US

Does pro life mean force women to give birth to their rapist's baby?

@metal-brain saidThe whole term pro-life is beyond me.
No, that is the definition of pro choice. I said pro life.

What they mean is that they think they know what’s best for women, because they read it in a fairytale.
