You lost in South Dakota!
How does electing a democrat give you more time or help you to make progress on the Supreme Court?
South Dakota was a beginning, not an end. We won 44% of the vote. We were outspent nearly 4:1. We have zero support at the national level, from NRLC. Our law ("Referred Law 6") contain only an extremely limited exception for rape/incest: the Plan B drug.
Viewed in the light of these realities, South Dakota was an encouragment.
