Poll Suggests Proposed Florida Abortion Amendment Has Enough Support to Pass
Breitbart ^ | 05/09/2024 | Katherine Hamilton

Posted on 05/10/2024 4:46:50 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Florida voters could narrowly pass an amendment enshrining the right to abortion in the state constitution in November.

A survey by the Florida Chamber of Commerce found that 61 percent of likely Florida voters say they support the abortion amendment, above the 60 percent support needed to pass the measure. However, the results are within the survey’s ±4 percent margin of error. The poll found that 29 percent of respondents oppose the amendment, and 10 percent are undecided.

It's an issue that's up to the states.

If all 50 states want to legalize abortion, I'm fine with that.

It's what our founding fathers wanted.

The pro-life movement in the United States has been totally defeated.

No. We aren't going away. Turncoats no longer have Roe to hide behind. It is 50 separate fights at this point. The fight isn't over until we all give up. If God decides to chastise us for our actions, so be it.

In Jeremiah 1:5 God says, “Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you; before you were born, I sanctified you; and I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

I wonder if pending abortions are also known, regarding both the mother and the fetus. An all knowing Living God must know.

both states had total results in favor of killing babies under 60%. the threshold in Florida is 60%.

i hope the poll is wrong. and i hope the pro-life side makes a better case than it did in Kansas and Ohio.

59% in Kansas. 56% in Ohio. Florida is more socially liberal than Kansas and Ohio. There's farm and stuff in Kansas and Ohio so that makes them more socially conservative.

It's better for the GOP to legalize abortion. Then we'll be done with this issue in Florida. Otherwise, the Democrats will continue to weaponize the abortion issue. We don't want that.

Correct. Donald Trump knows that the abortion issue is now a loser. Everyone else in the GOP should follow his lead on this issue.

“ We don’t want that.”

But murder, that’s something we can definitely go along with.

The pro-life lobby in the GOP is going to have to make a better argument than that. Whatever it is, the message is ineffective. Particularly to female voters.

“ We live in a democracy. We have to give the people what they want.”

That’s cool, because a whole lot of people want prison camps, gulags and special shower chambers. Even more people want free everything…free healthcare for everyone who is here, no borders, free TVs, free food, free shoes (just go into the stores and take what you want). No college tuition…it’s free. Don’t need to pay for your all-electric car.

Give the people what they want. It’s a democracy after all.

The GOP, a fake party that is nothing but a means to keep all-power in a closed fascist club, should not be our bellweather. If the GOP dies and disappears tomorrow, nothing changes.

And if a country and society is so morally and mentally polluted that it will accept anything for convenience, no matter how egregious or destructive, both personally and on the macro societal level, then it shouldn’t even exist. Mankind would be far better off if it collapsed and fell into ruins. No one should give it support or even their participation.

legalizing the destruction of innocent human life is not an answer to our problems, it is the beginning.
