How quickly is this shift happening? I’ve seen people discuss that before here.
The shift began in Nebraska several days after SCOTUS gutted Dobbs for a special U.S. House Rep election. The D candidate only lost by 7000 votes in what was considered a safe R district. Then the sweeping repudiation of Vote No in KS where 20% of R primary voters joined with Ds and unaffiliated folks to preserve abortion.
Abbott is currently polling in the low 40s, a range most political strategists say is “lose your election” territory.
If people turn out in November like they did in Kansas, some Rs are going to lose their seats that they didn’t expect to. One of them could be a certain TX governor.
