Its interesting, because to her that is a pretty high issue - so where parties/candidates stand on that will make a big difference in her decision on who to vote for etc.
Exactly...and I would argue that in this day and age abortion stance is irrelevant. It's not something that is going to change on a National level no matter how much the activists want it to.
