I hope it passes.

Does it have a chance? If it doesn't, it's because there are too many liberal Democrat christians who won't mind their own fucking business.

Polls in Ohio show 58% of likely voters support OH Issue 1. Which also means that 42% of likely Ohio voters don't. 42 fucking percent of Ohio voters think that somehow, decisions made by a woman and her doctor are their fucking business.

What this 5 cent cigar needs is a good country.

They believe it's what God wants them to do.

Issue 1 will become law if it gets over 50% of the vote.

Looks like this will pass next Tuesday. So that's good. What's not so good as that as far as the issue of abortion is concerned, 40% of Idaho voters are still assholes.

There's still hope for individual rights in rural America:

And with over 95% of the vote counted...it passed by over 13 points.

It's long past time for Democrats to stop running on their accomplishments and start runnung on abortion rights, LGBTQ+ rights, and on the criminality of Trump and the Republican Party from top to bottom.

Trump has succeeded on nothing but negative campaigning for his entire political life. Well the Democrats have way more negative ammunition available than the Republicans have...they better start using it. If they want to, the Democrats can make Trump look worse than Ted Bundy...and Marjorie Taylor Green look more insane than Aileen Wuornos.

Just get off the higher ground and do it. Its what the ignorant electorate in this country responds to. Wailing on the motherfuckers with abortion rights and Trump's sociopathic personality disorder will win this thing. Run that sick fuck right into the dirt.

Like I've said before. The tRumplican party is giving the Dems all the ammo that they need to wipe them out in 2024. The best defense is a good offense and the Dems need to start attacking now .

OHIO (The Borowitz Report)—Irate Republican officials in Ohio have been crying foul over Tuesday night’s election results, claiming that there were “widespread cases” of women voting across the state.

Harland Dorrinson, a G.O.P. operative in Lake County, said that he had “eyewitness accounts” of “swarms of women” standing in long lines outside of polling places.

“Many of our poll workers spotted women going into voting booths and literally casting votes,” he said. “These were not isolated incidents.”

Dorrinson said the “nightmare scenario” that unfolded on Tuesday has dire implications for both Ohio and the nation.

“There is every indication that women meddled in this election,” he said. “What’s to stop them from doing it again in 2024?”

Nov. 8 (UPI) -- A group of Michigan GOP lawmakers and the anti-abortion rights group Right To Life of Michigan on Wednesday sued to overturn the will of state voters who approved a 2022 constitutional amendment protecting abortion rights 56.7% to 44.3%.

The lawsuit said that when voters passed that proposal protecting reproductive rights, including abortion, it "created a super-right to "reproductive freedom." At no time in our nation's history has such a super-right, immune from all legislative action, ever been created by a popular vote outside of the checks and balances of a republican form of government."

Further proof, if you needed it, that Republicans don't believe in democracy.

But Repubs are just fine with a super-prohibition of rights they disapprove of.

And here is proof, though this is going nowhere, neither is the current US House. They are stuck in reverse with a shutdown looming in a week or so.

Quote:

The House then wasted hours on Wednesday debating and voting on amendments to the Financial Services and General Government appropriations bill, only to pull it moments before the scheduled vote on Thursday morning. This time, moderate Republicans rebelled over a provision in the bill that would allow employers in D.C. to discriminate against women who have an abortion or use contraception.
This is the kind of nonsense that the House is working on, attaching a provision to a funding bill which is not only unrelated but also will not pass muster. But guess it scores points with the deplorables.
