Not even close, moron, the abortion issue has already been test driven to great success. Thanks for adding hostility to IVF to your theocrat soup.
Haven't you figured it out yet? You ALWAYS have your ass handed to you when you pull your posts out of it.
This how you do it, nitwit, with f'ing facts.

KEY F'ing FACTS
2022 Special Elections: Abortion first emerged as a galvanizing issue for voters in Kansas’ August 2022 election, where voters in the right-leaning state shot down a ballot measure that would have paved the way for abortion to be banned in the state with 59.1% of the vote.
Abortion was also viewed as a defining issue in a New York special election in August 2022, where Democrat Pat Ryan eked out a narrow win in his congressional race after campaigning on his support for abortion rights.
2022 Midterms: Voters in California, Kentucky, Michigan, Montana and Vermont all voted in favor of abortion rights on ballot measures in the 2022 midterms (with no states voting against the procedure)— California, Michigan and Vermont’s measures explicitly preserved abortion access, while Kentucky voters rejected a constitutional amendment saying the constitution does not protect abortion rights, and Montana voters rejected a narrow proposal giving rights to fetuses who are “born alive” after failed abortions.
Democrats won key gubernatorial races in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, ensuring they could veto any abortion bans passed by their states’ GOP-controlled legislatures.
Republicans also failed to get legislative supermajorities in North Carolina and Wisconsin that would have allowed them to override governors’ vetoes and ban abortion—at least temporarily, as North Carolina Republicans later ended up getting a supermajority and banning abortion after 12 weeks anyway, after state Rep. Tricia Cotham switched her party affiliation from Democrat to Republican despite campaigning on abortion rights.
2023 Elections: The most direct win for abortion rights on Tuesday was in Ohio, where voters passed a ballot measure that explicitly protected reproductive rights, ensuring abortion’s legality in the state as its Supreme Court weighed reinstating a six-week ban.
Democrats in Virginia also took control of both legislative chambers after Republicans campaigned on enacting a 15-week abortion ban—attempting to paint the proposal as a less-extreme “limit,” rather than a ban.
Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) won reelection against Republican Attorney General Daniel Cameron, who previously took his fight to defend the state’s abortion ban to the Supreme Court, after Beshear campaigned on abortion and blasted the lack of exceptions in the state’s abortion ban.
BIG NUMBER
60%. That’s the share of registered voters in Virginia who said abortion was a “very important” issue for them in the state’s election, according to a Washington Post/Schar School poll released ahead of the election in October.
WHAT TO WATCH FOR
The success of abortion on the ballot this year signals the issue is likely to continue to be a key factor in the 2024 general election. Abortion will be on the ballot in New York and Maryland—with other proposals moving forward in such states as Arizona, Florida, Nevada and Pennsylvania—with Democrats likely using it to attract supporters to the polls in the presidential election and down-ballot races.
“Abortion is the No. 1 issue in the 2024 campaign,” Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) told the New York Times Tuesday. “If you’re not talking about protecting women’s reproductive rights as a Democrat, you’re not doing it right.”
CHIEF CRITIC
Anti-abortion rights advocates have railed against the results of Tuesday’s elections, with leading organization Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America saying in a statement the GOP’s losses in Virginia suggest consultants in the party need to “wake up” regarding how Republicans campaign against abortion rights.
“We are deeply disappointed by last night’s results, which serve as a warning sign for the GOP heading into 2024,” president Marjorie Dannenfelser said in a statement. “Candidates must put money and messaging toward countering the Democrats’ attacks or they will lose every time.”
