That is incorrect.
You don't need a medical license or a vagina to have a position on this.
All you need to be is a person with a brain.
Or a person who has conceived a pregnancy.
It takes two to tango, right?
For over 100 years Ohio has required simple majority of votes in order to amend its constitution. Earlier this year Ohioans gathered over 500,000 signatures to amend Ohio's constitution in the November election to enshrine abortion rights. Early polls showed that 58% of Ohio voters favored the amendment.
So what did Ohio's contemptible majority Republican legislature do? They hurriedly voted to have a special election and scheduled it for today which would raise the threshold to 60% to pass an amendment to the constitution. If passed, the November abortion rights amendment would require 60% to pass. The loathsome Republication legislators deliberately scheduled the vote for today because they know that very few voters turn out in an August election, especially when there is only one issue on the ballot.
BTW, earlier this year Ohio Republicans BANNED August elections, calling them "overly expensive, low turnout endeavors that weren't worth the trouble." Then they turned around and scheduled an election in August because they're Bible thumping hypocrites.
Ohio is a 54-46 state in favor of Republicans but the reprehensible Republicans have lost their attempt to fuck women in the only way they can - at the ballot box. With about 97% of precincts reporting, the measure was failing by a margin of 56.6% to 43.4%. Republicans are so out of touch with the voters!!
Also, the Supreme Court is full of shit for claiming that Dobbs merely returned the question of abortion to the states. The goal was really to get the conservative states to prohibit abortion as much as possible. That's why some hillbilly states do not include exceptions for rape or incest. Another reason is that hillbilly Republican states actually rely on rape and incest to keep their populations up.

Old, white, entitled dudes demand to control what women 2 generations younger do with their bodies.
be allowed to terminate a pregnancy all the way up to the moment of birth?
NO ONE thinks a woman should be allowed to terminate a pregnancy up to the moment of birth.
I dare you to find ONE example of anyone doing this.
If you can't, then STFU.
PS: I have. friend who says a woman should be able to terminate a pregnancy up to the 18th year after birth. So maybe you know him.
Fetterman:
After the [Women’s Health Protection Act] passed the House in September, National Review asked Representative Lamb, who’d ultimately voted for it, if there were any limits he could support on abortion late in pregnancy. “I think the right to choose is a right all the way through pregnancy,” he said.
with an inconvenient TRUTH, they call it a republican lie despite the fact that members of their own party made the statements they are alleging are Republican lies. Most Dems are low-information voters, so they will buy into it, but Republicans are smarter and usually will check the source like CKS has done before accepting the claim that "NO ONE wants women to have the right to an abortion up to the moment of birth", even when the Dems have made it the law in several Blue states.
You and Chickie should run off together and bathe in the Republican lie machine.
that there are NO states that allow abortion up until the moment of birth? We'll wait for the tap dance. Lol
Show me ONE instance where an actual abortion of choice of a viable fetus -- not one to save the life of the mother -- was done just before birth.
That wasn't my question. I will answer it for you . . . . These eight states have passed legislation that allows abortion up to the moment of birth . . . .
Alaska
Colorado
New Hampshire
New Jersey
New Mexico
Oregon
Vermont
New York
*Plus, the District of Columbia
Another question for you, how is this NOT the state sanctioning baby-killing?
And you're deluded to boot. And you refuse to comprehend that, as a practical matter, there are NO abortions at birth of viable fetuses. NONE.
So your entire argument is based on a tautology.
Why are you using the word "abortion?" In another post you referred to late-term abortion as "murder" and you call the women "baby killers." You call the procedure "butchering." You also call late-term abortion "...slicing and dicing a baby just before he takes his first breath..."
You justify other abortions by referring to them as: "...reluctantly sacrificing an unborn fetus during the early stages of gestation..." That's a lot less "provacative" (your spelling) and a lot more hypocritical. Either you're pro-life or you're not.
so you should not think of it that way.
I have no medial license + I have no vagina = I have no position.
I am not entitled to one.
You don't need a medical license or a vagina to have a position on this.
All you need to be is a person with a brain.
