“One thing I have noticed (while) following registration trends is that… the data look like there’s increased registration, particularly among younger people and especially younger women,” Patrick Miller, a political scientist at the University of Kansas, told The Star. While it’s not clear what higher registration numbers mean about voters’ intentions, Miller added that anger over the status quo is a significant political motivator.
“A big unknown is really what the effect of the anger over the Dobbs ruling is going to be,” he said. “It’s a difficult situation to gauge because… we don’t have a good recent template (for) when the Supreme Court took away a popular right. I can’t think of the last time that it happened.”

Republicans revoke your rights
