Democrats' election abortion strategy falls flat:

Abortion-rights advocates did receive some wins Tuesday night — in the form of several abortion ballots that would enshrine protections around reproductive freedoms into state constitutions, which passed in Arizona, Maryland and more, while failing in Florida and others. Yet abortion itself didn’t necessarily translate into a winning issue up the ballot for candidates who needed it most.

Before we rush to agree with political pundits that Democrats should continue scooching right, know what sacrifice our party intends on making.

This is rhetoric matches what was floating around news blogs just before Democrats ditched trans rights and police reform to appeal to moderates.

We’ve thrown every other marginalized identity into the moderate-conservative volcano. Bodily autonomy is the only remaining progressive issue on the Dem platform.
