WOW

Dave Wasserman has called it for the pro-choice side:



In Kansas!

GOP politicians are probably sh**ing bricks tonight.

Someone thank jcw’s beloved 6-3 SC for handing such a huge gift to Dem politicians in a year that was going to be a political bloodbath for them.

LMAO


The rightwing doesn't even listen to their own constant rhetoric about people wanting freedom of choice. You still don't have to get an abortion in Kansas if you don't want one.

...and no, they apparently don't believe that should be driving out of state to get one.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

The doom and gloom of the democrats was all hype.

Record turnout for a primary on one issue
Those bricks are absolutely massive
Abortion is common sense and most Americans agree.
This was never an issue for Republicans until they got in bed with the crazy Christian right and now they might have to pay and pay dearly.
Bottom line is Americans don't like their rights taken away. Even in Kansas.
Will Republicans listen to the country?

I am not terribly familiar with this story. Has the 10 year old been interviewed if she would want to have a baby?

No, I am 100% serious. I would just be interested in hearing her words.

Obviously no sane person is going to divulge the identity of the raped 10 yo.

But the fact that they traveled across state lines to get the abortion should provide enough evidence that she did not want to bring her rapist’s child to term.

I guess that gets to my question. Was it purely the parents decision or did the child have any say?

I am not judging, just curious.

This is exactly what the SC ruling was about. It isn't a federal issue it is a state issue and to be decided by the voters of that state. This exactly what is happening the court will be happy. The doom and gloom of the democrats was all hype.

Wait what? You mean the SCOTUS said let the people of each state decide and they did? Holy Crap.
i thought the Dems said that SCOTUS banned abortions? Isn't that why we have a thread on back alley abortions?
I did notice that the Kansas GOP Senatorial Primary winner had more votes than the top 5 Dem Candidates combined!
And the GOP Governor Candidate had 40% more votes than the Democrat.
GOP Voters turning out in force in Kansas, I expect more of the same come November.
