the only thing they can do is ignore the question.

Hopefully, voters notice this and vote them out.

People like that PA governor candidate who wants to charge women with murder if they end their pregnancy.

They don't want "outed" as being the guy who wants a 12 year old rape victim to be forced to carry it to term. They prefer to be in the "abortion closet".

They may try to hide, but they have not changed.

Roe, Roe, Roe your vote
against theocracy!
Republicans revoke your rights
and kill democracy!

THESE are the races that will determine control of the House of Representatives:

9. Republicans have figured out: whatever answer they give is wrong

So, they give none at all, so they can later say, “I never said that!”

Useless, useless people. If it weren’t for the fact that 40% of the voters in the USA would vote for a garden slug as long as that “R” is there, these clowns would get as many votes as they have parents and siblings.
