Oklahoma just banned abortions from the point of “fertilization”. So I have a few questions: Is it just women who are in blue cities that get abortion? Do women in red cities not get abortion? How do theses women vote? I keep hearing that most women support abortion (pro choice), but women are ~half of the voting block, so how do the women who are “pro-choice vote? Something is not adding up. Is there public data on the number (%) women from red cities who travel to blue cities to get abortion?

This wasn’t decided by a referendum vote, it was decided by 6 ghouls on the Supreme Court who were appointed specifically because it was well known that, given the chance, they would one day help overturn Roe. That was the bargain Trump struck with evangelicals and other Christians to win their support, despite being a deeply immoral man: they would look the other way and support him as he acted as unchristlike as he wanted to, as long as he appointed judges who opposed reproductive rights. He held up his end of the bargain, and now here we are. This decision is being forced on the country despite a large majority of Americans (64%, last I heard) supporting Roe and reproductive rights.

Many republican women have gotten abortions. They compartmentalize their situation as having been unique and the exception. They *needed* one. There’s this idea of a loose woman sleeping around that gets multiple abortions instead of using birth control; and that’s the bogey man they want to stop.

Everything abortion aside since idk exactly what you’re going for with your framework, we are in a period of history where the public support for or against something means the least in terms of something actually being done about it.

The publics interest is essentially null when it comes to what is or isn’t being passed.

There are not many *red cities.* atleast, not major ones. And republican women do get abortions, they just think their experience is the exception and in their case it was ok.

Most women support abortion in *some* cases (I think), where that line gets drawn is more the debate. When you get down to the nitty gritty of how is for life of mother decided, a doctor says it’s high risk or do I need to be dying? Or in instances of rape, which is rarely proven, what criteria would there be? If they agree in those instances they have to leave it open for all of us, otherwise it’s a burden.

I’m in Texas, and to be sure the way our laws are does not represent everyone in this state and definitely not a majority in the cities. I’ve had an abortion, and last year I took my 16 year old to get an abortion that would not have been legal here just a few months later. There were a lot of young women there, a very diverse group.

Voting is not as easy as you think. They try really hard to make it so only the “right” people vote. And you underestimate the Christian women out there. And many people who have the opinion that it’s okay for them (privileged women) but not others.
