Democrats Will Push Unlimited Abortions Day 1 if They Take Congress
Quick note. The Senate races are close, closer than ever. Be sure to vote!
A flavor of what pro-abortion Democrats are promising…
“Should they win in November, top House Democrats are planning a shock-and-awe legislative sprint to demonstrate within hours of taking power that they are passing bills to deliver on their promises…”
This particular “shock and awe” story doesn’t address Democrats’ goal of creating unlimited “access” to abortion but plenty of prominent honchos were part of a House Democrats’ Cost-of-Living Healthcare Working Group which sent Leader Hakeem Jeffries on September 1 a proposed governing memo. NRLC’s Rai Rojas wrote.

The memo is explicit. “Restore reproductive freedom nationwide,” it says: “Reestablish a federal right to abortion care and end restrictions that prevent people covered through federal health programs from receiving abortion coverage.” The bills named for the opening days and the opening salvos are H.R. 12, the Women’s Health Protection Act, and H.R. 4611, the Equal Access to Abortion Coverage in Health Insurance (EACH) Act.
Democrats are also happy to use deception where it will help. For example, in Alaska where incumbent Daniel Sulllivan is in an extremely close race with pro-abortion Democrat Mary Peltola. Under the headline, “How Democratic Operatives Got a Copycat Candidate on the Alaska Senate Ballot to Confuse Voters,” Kamden Mulder writes
The Alaska Division of Elections disqualified copycat Senate candidate Dan Sullivan in June after finding that he’s running for office in order to mislead voters into thinking they are voting for a Republican candidate of the same name. But Sullivan’s name will appear on the ballot thanks to a ruling from the state supreme court, which held that the candidate’s motivations for running are irrelevant to his eligibility. …
This didn’t happen by accident: It’s the end result of an orchestrated plot carried out by a group of Democratic operatives — also involved in other consequential Senate races, including Maine, Michigan, and Nebraska — who are willing to mislead voters if it gives their party a better chance to retake the upper chamber.
Then there is ballot summary of Virginia’s abortion-up-until-birth constitutional amendment which is awash in duplicity
BALLOT QUESTION 1
Question: Should the Constitution of Virginia be amended to (i) protect the freedom to make personal decisions about prenatal care, childbirth, postpartum care, birth control, abortion, miscarriage management, and fertility care; (ii) protect doctors, nurses, and patients from being punished for these decisions; and (iii) allow for restrictions on access to abortion during the third trimester of pregnancy except when the patient’s health is at risk or the pregnancy cannot survive?
“Prenatal care”? “Childbirth”? “Postpartum care”? “Restrictions” on third trimester abortions except (the all-purpose exception that swallows the rule) “when the patient’s health is at risk”?
It’s enough to give dishonesty a bad name
Finally, in the latest episode of Larry O’Connor’s podcast, O’Connor interviews Bob Ward, a partner at Fabrizio Ward, a polling firm associated with Donald Trump’s pollster Tony Fabrizio, and John Hishta who is Senior Vice President of Campaign Management at AARP about the most competitive battlegrounds.
The summary of the podcast is as follows:
They examine a stunning 30-point voter enthusiasm gap, the outsized influence of Americans over 50, and why younger independent voters could determine whether Democrats’ narrow polling advantage translates into actual votes on Election Day.
Breaking the percentages out specifically
In tight, high-turnout battleground congressional districts—such as those surveyed in the recent AARP / Fabrizio Ward & Impact Research study—voters 50 and older consistently represent around 55% to 60% of the likely voter pool. …
Young voters aged 18 to 29 make up approximately 10% to 12% of the likely voter poll. …
The survey highlights a significant disparity in expected turnout motivation: while over 80% of voters aged 50 and older indicate they are extremely motivated to vote, self-reported high motivation among voters aged 18–29 drops closer to 50%–55%.
Getting real interesting.
