Democrats focus on abortion in new ads ahead of tough midterm races

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Hoping to make the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade a key issue in this fall’s midterms, Democrats across the country have begun to focus their campaign advertising on abortion.

Last month, before the official ruling from the court but after the draft of Justice Samuel Alito’s majority opinion was leaked in May, Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., released an ad attacking her Republican opponent, Tiffany Smiley, saying “She’s risking women’s reproductive health care.”

It included a clip in which Smiley proclaimed she was “100% pro-life,” along with footage showing her standing alongside former President Donald Trump. Abortion remains legal in Washington, despite the reversal of Roe.

On Friday, the Murray campaign released another ad that includes a doctor identified as a gynecologist saying, “You think women’s reproductive health care is safe here in Washington? Not with Mitch McConnell’s handpicked candidate in the U.S. Senate, Tiffany Smiley.”

1. I think this is a mistake. Choice, as important as it is, us really just the start

The emphasis should be on that this court is ruled by 6 FASCISTS, and reproductive rights is just one of the freedoms they are taking away by fiat.

The argument should not be saving Roe. It should be saving freedom and Democracy.
