The SCOTUS decision gave the States the ball, and left it up to them to decide. That is what is currently being done.

Rick Santorum: (LOL)
“You put very sexy things like abortion and marijuana on the ballot, and a lot of young people come out and vote. It was a secret sauce for disaster in Ohio,” Santorum whined Tuesday night on Newsmax.
“Thank goodness that most of the states in this country don’t allow you to put everything on the ballot, because pure democracies are not the way to run a country.”
Rick Santorum Says Quiet Part Out Loud After Republican Election Losses
Dosen't bode well for the GOP.... If the dembs decide to use Ricks statement as a campaign meme. I wonder what Rick would replace "democracy" with?

Except you have prominent Republicans in Congress and Presidential candidates discussing the possibility of a national abortion ban.

You mean like yesterday how Mississippi's most populated county, that just so happens to be 85% Black, was not provided enough ballots and when polling places were resupplied they got less than 100 ballots each time and then a district judge refused to extend the hours for polling places despite this.
Or how about the polling place in Pennsylvania that was in a predominately Dem area that had a bomb threat called in?

As long as you have Republicans calling for a national abortion ban it's going to have an influence on national elections.
As long as the GOP continue to tie their horse to the abortion issue, it going to negatively affect them.

Only a small percentage of single women care more about abortion over the economy and without ene.edia support you would never hear about abortion during these insane economic times of difficulty.

Family planning is the economy. Economics is probably the #1 reason women opt for abortion. Being pregnant is costly, having and raising a kid is even more costly. It's the one economic factor women could control, when and if to add to their nuclear family.

Seems to me only one side is getting butt hurt about the decision in Ohio and even questioning how democracy works.
