While previous versions of the document said that unborn children have a "fundamental right to life which cannot be infringed" and called for a constitutional amendment to guarantee that right, this year's platform uses much more moderate language and emphasizes the role of states in protecting life.
It reads: "We proudly stand for families and life. We believe that the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States guarantees that no person can be denied life or liberty without due process, and that the states are, therefore, free to pass laws protecting those rights."
The platform goes on to laud the overturn of Roe v. Wade and then express support for prenatal care, birth control, and in vitro fertilization (IVF).
"After 51 years, because of us, that power has been given to the states and to a vote of the people. We will oppose late-term abortion, while supporting mothers and policies that advance prenatal care, access to birth control, and IVF," the new document reads.
I'm officially not voting in the federal election this year, I will for my state stuff still.

This seems like a dumb own goal in a situation where your opponent is constantly fricking up. Pro-lifers are almost all one issue voters and view any abortion timeline equal to murder... and I can't see this really turn anyone to them this close to the election.

I dunno how much that is true. Christians turned pretty
in recent years, and in local elections there's no alternative for the pro-life vote. 
But I want it to be true.

They are the kind of people who will write-in any pro-life candidate instead of voting someone who accepts abortion.

What percent of people believe that there should be no abortions no matter what?
Then what percent would allow abortions but only for
, incest, and so on?
Theeen, what percent would allow those exception while also allowing abortions up to 12 months?
I'm thinking the voter base is predominantly the third group, which is why the GOP is adjusting more toward their median voter.
