It is worth noting that the candidate who wins the majority of Catholic voters has won nearly every election since JFK in 1960, the ONLY exceptions have been 1968 (pre-Roe v. Wade), 2000 and POSSIBLY 1988.

IF Catholics actually start to see that there are consequences for pro-abortion politicians, many will reconsider who they vote for. IF Catholic voters begin to vote consistently pro-life, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Massachusetts and probably New York, Pennsylvania and Maryland will go into the GOP column.

I just had this conversation with one of our new priests (your first sentence). He agreed and also made a point in last week’s homily to mention the Church teaching on abortion. It shocked a few parishioners.
