Abortion 2024 VIctory? I Have Hope [View all]

I was reading an article in Politico this evening about Flori-duh and their planned abortion ballot measure. It was basically an article about how DeSatans hand-picked conservative Supreme Court screwed him. The article featured a nice map showing the 12 states where Abortion could be on the ballot in 2024.

Looking at the map gives me some real hope for 2024. I expect Biden to win anyway because Trump is demented and deranged. However this map gives me a lot of hope for down ballot victories in some states that are often Red or Red leaning.

On Ballot in 2024 - Florida, Maryland, New York

Pending for the 2024 ballot - Montana, Nevada, Arizona, Colorado, Nebraska, South Dakota, Missouri, Arkansas, Maine

Approved in a past election - California, Kansas, Ohio, Michigan

Some of these states like Arizona, Colorado and Nevada are very purple and could go either way. Abortion is a definite issue that could turn them nicely Blue. I can see the House turning Blue and picking up a couple extra senate seats if all goes well.
