If the right were smart they'd do everything they could to eliminate abortion from the voting booth. Last election married men went for Trump about 58/42 and both single men and married women went trump around 54/46. But single women went biden 70/30. And unlike men who have multiple issues of equal concerns, polling shows that for the average voting woman, abortion rights is far and away the singular issue they focus on. Take that away and even if their support drops from 70% to 60% that would kneecap the left.

Looking at rough averages of a numbers of polls, somewhere around 10% of americans thinks abortion should be illegal in all circumstances and 15-20% think it should be legal in all circumstances up to birth. Which leaves about 75% or so that are okay with abortion but with restrictions. Pretty much all of them are good with the usual exceptions health, rape, incest, etc... which means the only question is around when should be the cutoff for elective abortions. Most polling I've seen on average have that somewhere around 15 weeks.

Congress should pass a law granting 15 weeks plus the usual exceptions. Every four years, non presidential cycle, we vote if we want to move that cutoff a week or two higher or lower. It'll never be an issue for the right unless they elect a pro lifer for president who threatens to overturn it. But they'll never get the votes for it unless they've done a good enough job swaying the electorate. Which would require a major cultural shift.

Now I don't think that'll happen because abortion is too valuable a political tool. Left desperately needs it for votes and both sides need it for fundraising. The right would lose some of the single issue pro life voters but it'd be a catastrophic loss for the left.

Even if trump wins, which I'm not confident, and especially if they lose, they need get bipartisan support and enact this.
