      The polls are moving in the right direction! The latest on 538 has Hawley ahead by 4. Hopefully the ballot initiative gets the right people out to vote! But I am a little disappointed in the DNC. I didn't even know Hawley was up for reelection or that the race was tightening. It's the same here in FL - we have a wonderful candidate running against Rick Scott & our local news just ran a story on how the DNC is barely helping her. I really believe we could beat MAGA senators like Scott & Hawley with help from the DNC. It's very frustrating.

    I live in Missouri. What actually happened is a legislator brought a last minute case to block the ballot initiative before a friendly judge who ruled in her favor. This happened on Friday, the ACLU took it to the Supreme Court on Sunday, the court heard it on Tuesday, the day the ballot had to be finalized, and immediately overturned the lower court ruling.

      @@mariagoode5903 Yes, Americans need to be able to accept the results of the courts, but when you have judges who are political and rule according to their politics instead of the law which is what they are supposed to do, it makes it difficult to even want to accept the results of the court, when you know the decision that you are being told you must accept is not the law it is only politics. I can not say honestly that if I knew in my heart that a judge made a decision based on their own political preference, that I could accept it. JUST LOOK AT WHERE WE ARE WITH CLARENCE THOMAS AND ALITO, BOTH MAKING FINAL LEGAL JUDGEMENTS THAT ARE POLITICAL AND BOUGHT AND PAID FOR, AND WHO IS PAYING THE PRICE FOR THEIR POLITICALLY BOUGHT AND PAID FOR RULINGS? WE THE PEOPLE ARE PAYING THE PRICE AND THEY ARE TURNING OVER LAWS THAT HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED PRECEDENTS FOR DECADES, ONLY DUE TO POLITICAL REASONING, AND NOT ONLY THAT, THEY ARE MAKING NEW LAWS, WHICH IS WRONG... LAW MAKING IS NOT THEIR JOB, IT IS THE JOB OF CONGRESS SO FOR THE SCOTUS TO MAKE A LAW THAT DONALD TRUMP IS IMMUNE TO PROSECUTION OF ANY LAW HE BROKE WHILE DOING OFFICIAL WORK AS PRESIDENT, THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. Being a president still DOES NOT ALLOW YOU TO BREAK THE LAW, and SCOTUS does not have the right to make that the law. THE JOB OF SCOTUS IS TO ENSURE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE THE PROMISE OF EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER LAW AND, THEREBY THEY ALSO FUNCTION AS GUARDIAN AND INTERPRETER OF THE CONSTITUTION, so if we just accept the courts ruling, we are allowing them to take us where we may not want to be, all based on politically leaning right, instead of going by the rule that the constitution specifically states they must, also which is THE LAW OF THE LAND, and we can not let that just stand simply because it must be accepted. WRONG IS WRONG AND POLITCALLY LEANING EITHER WAY BY A COURT IS WRONG AND THEREFORE, UNACCEPTABLE .....PERIOD!!

      What I, as a woman, don't understand is the women that vote for it. They're voting against themselves. Maybe when one of them is bleeding out from a miscarriage in a hospital parking lot because they can't get the emergency reproductive care they need they'll think twice.

      They don't care about abortion, their interest is in control of women. That is why once a fetus is actually born they refuse to fund any issues that might provide for food, medical care, etc.

    • @bsadewitz

      Well, because men don't own any of the bodies it directly affects, obviously. But would it be OK if a majority of women were opposed to reproductive rights like this somewhere? I don't think so. And that has probably happened before. I don't view it as a just a women's rights issue. It's a human rights issue.

    Brian this exact same scenario has happened here in Idaho, another bright red state. We managed over the last year to get a citizens initiative on the ballot for this November after working hard to meet all the many requirements. The initiative is for Open Primaries with Ranked Choice Voting. Our Secretary of State certified that all requirements were met but our Attorney General, Raul Labrador, was determined to get it off the ballot. He sued not once but TWICE to invalidate it. Ended up both times at our state Supreme Court, also completely conservative but they upheld the initiative. And of course he was dumb enough to try it again. And again ended up at our Supreme Court who were none too happy to see that he apparently didn’t understand their verdict the first time. Same result - they upheld the initiative. Of course both of his lawsuits were entirely at taxpayer expense. It’s entirely possible that he should be a little nervous the next time he is up for re-election 😡

Josh has no interest in helping the people of Missouri. In my opinion he only has high political ambitions and hopes that it will get him to where he wants on the coattails of Trump and trust me I’m not going to help him do it. It’s important for the country to know how extreme Hawley is and I’m tired of all the hate.

    I am in and from Missouri, St.. Louis. There has been many attempts by the AG to deny the abortion refendum to be on the ballot this upcoming election cycle, and certainly because it's believed by all that enshrining abortion-access will pass. While we are a very conservative state --- remember, this is Josh Hawley's homeland --- and the first state to outlaw abortion after the Roe-vs-Wade decision was cast -- most Missourians support abortion in the case of rape, incest or the life of the mother in true danger. It's worth noting that a couple years before Roe vs Wade came to be considered, the GOP passed a measure that stated if the landmark decision was overturned, the legality of abortion would end here. No one really even knew much about it, when, to most, that was more about a pretense than a possiblity. It's worth adding that there's been many other far-right legal efforts underway, Missouri Republicans introducing a huge onslaught of anti-LGBTQ legislation, something like 25% of all such legal efforts targeting us nationally were being fought here.
