The political climate in the States right now is making it very hard for anyone with a liberal viewpoint to even consider voting for a Republican. This is especially true for women who have watched Roe v. Wade go away.

My wife is a perfect example. The other day she was filling out her mail in ballot and said "well, this will be pretty quick. I just have to tick off all the democrats on the ballot".

I pointed out that this is exactly what is wrong with American politics these days and she was quick to retort:

"As soon as the Republicans stop being misogynistic #######s, I'm all for an open mind to debating candidates. Until then..."

I can't even blame her.
Then why are the Democrats predicted to lose the house in a few weeks? And the senate is a tossup. Republicans have shown their true colors in the last few months with abortion, LBGTQ rights, and women's rights all under direct assault. Yet they're going to GAIN power as a result. That doesn't happen if some democrat voters don't switch sides, or at the very least stay home because they don't like their options
