Let's get something straight, nobody favors abortion

84. you missed the whole point of this discussion

I don't care if you have children, abortions, birth control or anything. This is about framing a debate at the door of a stranger in an effort to get him or her to vote for our candidate. I do that leg work. I organize people to do that leg work. The people I support, winning elections, is why we have laws in Massachusetts that favor a women's right to choose. When someone I'm training to canvass for a candidate and they ask me, "what do I say if a voter asks about our candidate's position on abortion?" My answer is "She or He is pro-choice. We believe in a woman's right to choose and have control over her own body".

or how our candidates should answer that question. Please send me a statement from any candidate for any office that describes themselves as pro-abortion instead of pro choice. Just one. And I don't mean abortion rights, because that's not how the OP is framed. Pro-Abortion is the link I want.

Perhaps I'll change that training and take your advice. At the door, maybe I'll have our people, when asked about that issue, tell the voter it's none of their business how our candidate feels. or better yet, explain why we're pro-abortion. "Oh, Mam, on that issue our Candidate Jane Smith is in favor of abortion."

That sounds like a winner.
