My thoughts are that its produces a cancelling out of pro choice & pro life voters & the elections ceases to hinge on the abortion issue & reverts back to the poor economy, inflation, illegal immigration & poor job markets & Democrats lose as they are expected to 😉

I just think the Dominion vote counters will be working overtime to cancel the conservative votes. But I could be wrong. it may all be on the level.

Doesn’t look good for us. Think of all the young women that blame us for all their shortcomings. BJ and The messiah will be there for them.

We’ll need an army of volunteers to be there for young women in trouble.

The media is pushing this as a “game changer” for the Dems. I disagree. I don’t see any significant effects from this. If you’re inclined to ignore Biden’s disastrous policies, sky-high gas and food prices etc., all because you’re a fan of abortion, well, then you were likely *already* voting for the Dems.

the left leaked it so it would be a mobilizing issue

they had no mobilizing issue

they hope this will prevent them getting annihilated in november

i think it backfires on them

America’s stupid electorate has a very, very short memory. Negligible effect.

I think those who expect abortion to be less of an issue after this ruling is issued are mistaken.

The leftists will campaign on the ruling saying “Keep us in control of Congress so we can do something about this.”

Also, and much more importantly, abortion now becomes a huge, contentious issue for state legislatures in swing states. Each state will need to pass legislation setting limits on abortion. In the swing states this could be a closely fought deal.

I think this is a huge opportunity for grassroots conservatives in MN, IA, WI, MI, OH, PA, NC, GA, AZ, NV, etc. They’ll have every incentive to rally people to win solid conservative control of their state legislatures to ban abortion and secure the elections.

Many Blue states already have pro-abortion laws on the books so abortions would continue unabated, so democrats in those states may be less concerned about the abortion process at the federal level.

Many Red states have laws already in place that would outlaw abortions if Roe vs Wade were overturned. Democrats in those states would therefore be riled up to vote straight democrat across the ticket. This may be a concern in tight states, that could flip from red to blue.

The problem for the left is that they have gone too far left, the vast majority of Americans favor restrictions of some kind on this issue, but the left wants a free-for-all and that works against them on the national level.

My guess is we still take the house but by a slimmer margin, which may lead to a RINO as speaker. I think we take the Senate, but again it will be by a slim margin.

My sense is that abortion is not the hot button issue for mainstream Dems that it used to be. The country seems to have become more pro life across the board.

I believe a victory of this magnitude would energize motivate and encourage our base.

I believe a defeat of this magnitude would both energize and discourage our opponents.

Net win is OURS.

It is a long way until November. I think it’s impact will be minimal, especially if the court ruling says this is a matter for states to address. It’s going to be hard to cover up inflation, warmongering, immigration, etc. Plus, the extreme woke in the Democratic Party are going to be on full display for all Americans to see. And let’s not forget our children in schools, if they continue repeating that they know better than us parents how to raise and teach our kids, that will be an underlying red wave. Our biggest challenge is going to be RINO Republicans Who will sell out Americans on every topic.

All I have to say is supposition, but here goes.
My guess is, if this leak is true, one of two things will happen.
1) Every leftist and pro-abortion Republicrat will flood the polls in November to vote Democrat.
or
2) We will see the worst rioting since the Civil War, which will disgust enough people that the Republicans sweep everything.
One Caveat, Number two is what we Normals thought in 2020

The left has never hesitated to fight us, and has never worried about the consequences of winning.

87% of counties in USA have zero abortion clinics. The few abortion clinics in the USA are in low birth rate zones, such as San Francisco, which are dying out. Young people know enough about ultra sound scans to reject the violence of abortion.

By leaking the draft decision now, the Left is compromising its impact on November, which tells me that the purpose of the leak has nothing to do with the election: it’s an attempt to change the Court’s decision.

A late June decision would have had a far greater impact on the election, as it would be definitive and thus more polarizing.

I think this backfires on the left: they get neither their decision nor electoral advantage.

But, boy, they will piss and moan for the next five months... nothing new there.

This will probably motivate the younger folks that were going to pass on the election to turn out, in some states this will have the effect of making the Dims completive where they would not have been this election cycle.

Long term this is probably bad news for the GOP, for the past 50 years Roe has motivated social conservatives to turn out and given the GOP a electoral advantage. I suspect many of those same folks will figure their work is done and will slowly drift away from political activism.

On the left this will likely motivate the younger generation to become politically active, I would not be surprised in 20-25 years to see the majority of states have legalized abortion.

The young will determine the fate of abortion

I agree the pro and anti abortion votes will probably cancel each other out and the economy will be the big decider although that is assuming the Democrats, maybe with a little support from Murkowski or Collins doesn’t repeal the filibuster and pack the court. It is easy to underestimate the sheer stupidity and destructiveness of the left.They have no core values other than a lust for power and if denied may well toss a turd in the punch bowl.

It has been a LONG time since my one-semester high school law class, so I could be remembering wrong, but didn’t the Roe vs Wade decision say that the right to privacy was implied in the constitution, and that that was why the government had no business deciding women couldn’t get abortions?

If so, does overturning it mean that SCOTUS no longer believes that Americans have a constitutional right to privacy?

Don’t get me wrong, I think abortion is an abomination and I pray it ends, permanently!

At the same time, eliminating the assumed right to privacy opens the doors to yet another layer of government overreach.

The abortion crazies are going to go out and vote Dhimmicrap anyway. This will energize the Republican base. The Red Wave is likely to be a Red Tsunami.

I think the left knows what their fate is in November, a loss, maybe so huge that it sets them and their radical agenda back a very long time. This leak is to blunt the effect, but more so to revitalize the effort to nuke the senate filibuster to facilitate jamming their unpopular losing agenda down our throats before they get voted out. That agenda includes the dead new green deal, amnesty, and legalized voter fraud. This is their battle of the bulge.
