A thought for now ..... NY's 3rd district is an example of "the dog who finally caught the car."

Republicans and the SCOTUS just had to take away a woman’s right to health care and control
over their own bodies. And this will be a major factor across America in the 2024 elections.
Freedom of religion also means freedom from religion too.

…. knocking on my door on the 1st morning that we could sign a petition to start to make the right
for a woman to have a safe and legal abortion in Ohio and I think across the country that right has
won in just about every election including in the red states too. Troy Balderson who was my Congress-
man (his district has changed) but he was a huge, “I’ll always fight for the lives of unborn.” has now
stripped all anti abortion information from his web site.

and that would be a very weird circumstance.....I'd be shitting pickles. No platform, no agenda, nothing to offer neutral voters. Plus, Trump is sucking up all of the donations for his legal bills. Whatta bunch of rubes.
