Yes they have a pro-life segment, largely due to the need to get votes in the South.

Many of those are really republicans that have had to run as democrats on the local level due to traditional. This is true in many southern states. These people represent areas that vote democratic on the local level but republican on the national level.

Mike Snow from Georgia is on your list. He is an example of this. He lost his reelection bid however to a republican challenger. I wonder how many others on the list are no longer in office.

Regardless, none of these low level pro-life democrats are going to be helpful to the pro-life movement since they vote for democratic leadership and have no say in SCOTUS confirmations.

Yes, it is the same here in Arkansas.

Dear JeffAtlanta,

"Regardless, none of these low level pro-life democrats are going to be helpful to the pro-life movement since they vote for democratic leadership and have no say in SCOTUS confirmations."

Bitter experience has taught us here in Maryland that that isn't true. Folks who win at the local level are the folks that will move up to the big leagues.

In Maryland, folks who started out at the local level include Barbara Mikulski, Steny Hoyer, William Donald Schaeffer, Parris Glendening, to name a few.

The local level is the "farm team." That is why since 1978, I have not even voted for a single Democrat for state, county, or municipal office.
