The right to abortion is a key issue for many women in the US Presidential election, according to opinion polls. They suggest that the issue could have a big impact in the swing states where the election will be won and lost.
Republican leaders have supported tough restrictions or an outright ban on abortion and that has been proving a liability for Donald Trump, who has been changing his public position on the issue.
Meanwhile Kamala Harris is highlighting her support of abortion rights as she seeks the votes of pro-choice women.

Inflation is 25%, crime is rampant, people are living in their cars, rent is through the roof, a new truck costs 60k and WW III is literally just around the corner.
“Abortion is the key issue in swing states”.
If I were a woman living in the US, I would never vote for Trump. He is a mysoginist
I live in a swing state, abortion is 100% not a key issue. The overturning of roe v wade put the power of decision into the states hands, as it is supposed to be re: constitutional state sovereignty. It’s a state’s rights issue, and companies like BBC dumbing it down and confusing the issue on purpose is a direct attack on that same sovereignty
