Multiple hospitals in Alabama have now ceased IVF because of the ruling.

The judge in question is a Christian fundamentalist who is on stating that he wants the US to be a Christian nation.

As soon as clarity is delivered on that ruling they will start up again.

As mentioned by Dan, where is the BAN, where is the legislation for a BAN?

Billionaire-backed Koch network halts Nikki Haley campaign funding after South Carolina loss

AFP Action closing its wallet is the next nail in the coffin for the former South Carolina governor who has taken a series of hits since the start of the election year. Along with AFP Action, billionaire Reid Hoffman has also stopped funding Haley's presidential bid.

Where will Nikki Haley get the support she needs in order to win the Republican primary if her big conservative donors back out?

I have heard that Democrat funding groups have also been contributing to Haley's campaign. If true, it's interesting that Liberal groups and the Koch family have been on the same side of this one. I remember how my Liberal friends used to think the Koch brothers were the devil incarnate.

Irk why people can't see through Haley idk how she's as popular as she is.

My Question Now is Why isn't the RNC Stepping in and Telling the Haley Campaign that it's OVER for them and they should Now Support Trump in his Bid to see a Republican in the White House again in 2024 ? She is just a Pretender Republican to begin with !

Killed on delegates, but 59.8% (491,095) to 39.5% (298,674) on the popular vote, granted she was Governor, but that's a lot of Haley voters for Trump to win over. Probably 65-70% to 30-35% across the board when all the primaries come in.

There is a possibility a disproportionate number of Haley supporters will begrudgingly vote for The Amazing Octogenarian just to assure veto power remains intact for any wacky legislation that might come about.

In all this mania about Biden destroying America people arent noticing the concurrent red state polls, especially since 2022. Kentucky rejected a ban 52% to 48%, that sides with Haley's view within the Republican party, who was the one who defended Ohio's states rights the most in debate.

Border? Foreign Aid? China? Naw... Those aren't the issues that decide this election. Nor will it need to be stolen.

Because the two factions within the Republican party are at odds and nether wants to seed more power to the other.

The Dick Cheney establishment Republican party would rather loose a presidential election than win with Donald Trump as the head of the party.

this is opinion and not fact, but I believe polls are there to DRIVE public opinion and not Measure it.

It is hard to measure... There were some accurate polls, but the media pushed an agenda and then picked the polls that matched their agenda. Especially with Trump and Hillary, early on the media pushed 90% Hillary and it may have started there but Trump came roaring in and they just stayed with their 90%. Within one month of the elections, polls were saying 50/50.

The border is most definitely there, add the economy as people are hurting no matter what the numbers suggest. Concerns about a world burning is another...

Abortions...not so much as it was moved down to the State level.

Exit polls had 59% of Haley supporters saying they wouldn't vote for Trump.

If you don't think abortions will play a role then you haven't been paying attention to every election since the Dobbs decision.

Is SC an open primary state......?

It is now State level...The President doesn't do anything with that. I agree it is mainly important for Liberal Women, but they are already voting for Joe.

If there were 100 then that would suggest 17 would not vote for Trump. I bet most end up anyway... We are also talking about her state too, so I would think she would have some diehards there, but do you think it is enough for Trump to lose NC?

We've had numerous politicians float the idea of a national ban. Even Trump supports a national 16-week ban.

Once again, if you think abortion hasn't been and won't continue to play a role in elections then you haven't been paying attention.

The GOP have been losing female voters to the Dems and they haven't really done anything to woo them back. Instead they keep doing things that cause them to lose more and more support among women.

Trump carried SC in 2020 with 55% of the vote. If 17% of GOP voters that voted last time choose to sit the election out it could be enough to cost Tko the state. If that 17% chooses to vote for Biden it will be enough to cost Trump the state.

It is best to find a middle ground at some point 16 weeks would work. I don't think as many people as you think care about it. I agree large voices screaming about it and all, but there is a huge demographics of people who just do not care one way or the other...like me.

It doesn't work that way when only 65% typically vote in the first place...many do not vote for one reason or another. If people are conservatives and it is down to Trump or Biden again they will vote for Trump. I bet Trump wins NC by 5% this time... The country has been hurting under Biden... I could play the same game in suggesting Biden's 30% approval rating means 40% of the total liberal base will not vote this time.

As I said, I'm not making this observation based on nothing. It's an observation based on monitoring elections. Ever since Roe was overturned, Dems have seen better turnouts that expected with an increase in female and young voters.

How does mail in and absentee voting fit in to what I'm oh so sure is a true to the facts method of evaluating turnout?
