"GOP has lost everywhere this has had a direct vote, including in states such as Montana, Kentucky, Kansas."

So you say it's a big political loser, how is it that GOP Sen. Moran won re-election by nearly the exact same margin that the Kansas Amendment lost?

Or that the Montana GOP picked up 3 state senate seats and one in the statehouse? Or that MT GOP Reps. Zinke and Rosendale won easily? In fact, the Independent in Rosendale's race beat the Democrat! Where's the pro-abortion vote in that District? LOFL.

In Kentucky, Rand trounced Booger by 23 freaking points.

So, your assertion doesn't hold water.

I don’t think you can compare one region or state of the country with another region. The opposite would have happened in New York, California or Chicago.

The anti-abortion voters were not all anti-abortion activists but pro-State Rights people leaving it to the states to decide and there are many of those as well but not as many as the anti-abortion voters. But they did help push this issue into a victory. To go back and try to federalize it will lose the State Rights voters that’s the pivot.

Americans don’t need BIG Government to save us, they need GOD. Go out and sell Him.

I think you need to figure out what "direct vote" means.

There's a difference between a ballot referendum, and a political candidate. The latter involves a wide array of issues that voters think about, whereas the former is straight-up about abortion and nothing else. And, again, since the Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs abortion ruling, the anti-abortion movement has not won one single ballot referendum, including ones in pretty red states. That speaks volumes.
