So only 13% of Californians polled think abortion should be allowed up until birth, yet we’re supposed to believe that 69% voted for exactly that? Not possible.
I’m noticing this. Voting behavior does not seem to match our culture.
We don’t go see gay romcom at the theater, but we turn out big for Maverick.
I was pretty sure the fix was in, the Dems don’t seem to be concerned with elections too much anymore. I mean who gives a V for Vendetta style speech right before an election? A dude not worried about elections.
As usual, the proposition was worded in a way that sounded reasonable to a lot of people: “the state shall not deny or interfere with an individual’s reproductive freedom in their most intimate decisions, which includes their fundamental right to choose to have an abortion and their fundamental right to choose or refuse contraceptives.” But as a constitutional amendment it essentially overrides a 2002 state law that effectively prohibits abortions after 24 weeks of pregnancy. Most people don't make that connection, and it was of course designed that way.
