The Ohio GOP’s bold abortion gambit has imploded

The point at which they are fighting against the majority in the state is the point they stop being a valid government in my opinion. The whole point for states rights is to reflect what the people in the state want. And if the majority wants something and the people voted in appose it, they should be removed from their positions.

- The conservative movement was never about states’ rights. That’s just the market-tested brand name they used to sell their particular flavor of authoritarianism.

  Oh I know. I'm just stating it's just blatant at this point

- Yeah well then Ohio is aggressively failed. When it was a swing state it was already so gerrymandered that it was driving away liberals

  a lot of southern states are horribly gerrymandered in favor or Republicans. It's disgusting.

This great news in theory, but it won’t be great news in practice until that idiotic Issue 1 is voted down and then the ballot to enshrine abortion rights is passed.

Fuck the GOP and their fascism.

What kills me is that those are red states, which means some of those pro-choice voters are okay voting for pro-birthers come election time and then go all pikachu face when their rights are taken from them.

I'd love to see more ballot measures like this. If they are actually honored, the polls make it seem like abortion would be protected.
