'ON WHETHER REASONS ARE NECESSARY: In considering a list of reasons that are often cited as requiring abortion to be available, saving the life of the mother was considered the most important reason.
Reasons for support for abortion included: To protect the life of the mother, 86%; in cases of rape and incest, 81%; if the baby has a life-threatening condition, 76%; if the baby has a medical condition that may be challenging; 74%; if the baby has a medical condition that will be costly, 61%; and if a woman is in an abusive relationship, 57%.
However, the following were NOT reasons for abortion support with the percentages indicating a NO vote: If a baby is NOT the desired sex, 78%; for any reason at all, 60%; if a woman is in a relationship that’s unlikely to last; if the father refuses to financially support the child, 57%; if a woman is in a relationship with someone she doesn’t want to keep seeing, 58%; or if the timing of the pregnancy is inconvenient, 54%.
BOTTOM LINE: When it comes to abortion, reasons matter for these youth voters. Finding the timing inconvenient, not liking the sex, or no longer being interested in the father is not enough to justify ending a life.
ON WHETHER ABORTION IS PAINFUL FOR WOMEN: The Youth Vote also rejects the talking point from abortion-supporting media and “feminist” groups that abortion is no big deal, without pain and suffering.
Asked “
How physically and emotionally painful do you believe abortions are for the women/mothers who experience them?”,
most agree that abortion is a horrific event.
97% said that abortion was physically painful, with 42% saying “very painful.” Only 4% said it was not a physically painful event.
97% said that abortion was emotionally painful, with 60% saying that it was “very painful.” Only 2% thought that abortion was not an emotionally painful event.
Once again, women’s lived experience with abortion does not match Planned Parenthood’s hype.'
The YOUTH VOTE Doesn’t Support the Radical Abortion Agenda Democrats are Selling BUT Supports Limits on Abortion & Chemical Abortion Pill Safeguards - Demetree
