"I think what we're finding is that the presence of those ballot initiatives actually gave some subset of women voters a permission structure that allowed them to go into the ballot booth and vote their interests on securing abortion rights and then pivot..." - @ProfMMurray

@alikat747 I did not ever say that referenda are a panacea. In fact, I said the opposite.In this election they allowed a certain subset of women voter to vindicate their interest in abortion rights while pivoting to vindicate their economic interests w/ Trump.

@alikat747 Walk that back, friend. I did not say that. I said it is likely that ballot referenda can be more effectively used in the midterms. And then I laid out the hellscape that will unfold across three branches of government. Keep my name outta this nonsense.

Want an example of a broken system? Florida DIDN’T “reject” the proposal to include a right to abortion in the constitution — they voted 58.2% in favor of abortion rights. But it needed 60% to pass, so it failed WITH A MAJORITY. Can’t imagine what Florida women must be thinking.
