........62% of Texans in a recent poll support SB5. “ABORTION”...........all by itself, will not get you elected to the Governors office in Texas. As the poll shows though, it can sure get you un-elected.
As she has been all her life, Wendy is desperate. Post 20 week abortion, more and more, is being seen for what it is. Namely, premeditated murder.
Bottom line, ABORTION, is the only horse the Dems and Wendy have in their corral to throw their saddle on.
“More importantly, this poll shows that banning abortion after 20 weeks of gestation — one of the provisions of SB5 — has the support of over 62 percent of Texas residents. Of course, these sorts of surveys often receive little attention from many media outlets.

Opposition to late-term abortion enjoys majority support across the country, not just Texas. This doesn't prevent Democrats from getting elected though.
Texas pro-lifers won a Pyrrhic victory with the toothless SB-5. Wendy Davis' filibuster may have failed but she got huge national exposure, most of it glowing from the MSM --and with this, lots of donated money from across the country. Abbott? Nobody outside of Texas even knows who he is.
Honestly, I don't think Davis will win but I'm afraid it's not going to be a blowout either. I think she's going to make Abbott put up a fight. And fights cost money.
