Poll Shows Abortion Is A More Powerful Issue With Voters Than Immigration

Poll Shows Abortion Is A More Powerful Issue With Voters Than Immigration

"SNIP...........

A poll of 63 battleground House districts found that abortion edged out immigration as a dealbreaker issue for voters.

Punchbowl News reported:

A national DCCC-commissioned poll of more than 1,000 likely voters in 63 competitive House battleground districts found that immigration and abortion were the top two “dealbreaker” issues for respondents. In the poll conducted March 5-10, 36% of voters said they couldn’t support a candidate who disagreed with them on abortion, while 33% said the same for immigration.



The poll found the top attack lines against Republican candidates were on abortion. When voters were told Republicans want to pass a national abortion ban, 52% said that was very concerning. The same percentage said it was very concerning that Republicans supported overturning Roe v. Wade.

They got what they manufactured years ago with finally overturning Roe v wade. But now they want to continue and double down even going as far as death penalties for a woman getting an abortion, more red states will continue down this path.

However they consider that they hold some magical control over women and everyone else is going to be a woke experience for them. Perhaps becoming woke will cause the rapture and we’ll be finally done with all of them.

All they will say is that "We just need to tweak our messaging".

Nope, people don't like it when right are taken away. And since the GQP is all about hurting people, they will indeed never learn. They have to be crushed at the ballot box over and over.

After Romney lost in 2012, the GOP declared that they were going to do an election “autopsy” and become more welcoming to minorities. We all saw how that turned out.

to fill jobs, and the repubs don't want to fix the border problem, I don't really care. So glad that folks are paying attention & glad that women will fix the abortion mess.
