I don’t see how they get this done preelection.

You think Roe v. Wade divides Republicans? SMC22307 Sep 2020 #16
I think most polls indicate that "anti-choice" is a losing issue for Republicans. kentuck Sep 2020 #17

Gardner from CO votes on a Dump nominee and he's definite toast. roamer65 Sep 2020 #18
