Abortion is a nonpartisan issue, experts say. It could still affect the outcome in swing states

In this election, 10 states will ask voters how their states should regulate abortion — including a couple of presidential swing states like Arizona. Related Florida abortion amendment could backfire on Ron DeSantis “There are some key strategies for winning on issues that are traditionally deemed progressive when we're working in states that are largely conservative or swing states,” Kelly Hall, The Fairness Project’s executive director, said in a press conference. Laura Dent, the campaign manager for Arizonans for Abortion Access, said that voter enthusiasm in support of Arizona’s measure, Prop 139, has been “undeniable.” Prop 139 would amend the state constitution so the government cannot “limit access to abortion before fetal viability without establishing that the limitation.” Notably, it would also protect access to abortion after fetal viability “if a treating healthcare provider determines an abortion is needed to protect the life or physical or mental health of the patient, using accepted clinical standards and evidence-based medicine,” as explained by the supporting campaign. “And that's not limited to Democrats — that’s Republicans and independents who don't like that interference, as well.” While Florida isn’t seen as a top swing state this year, the abortion issue could change how voters vote along party lines. “If the past two years have shown us anything, it is that voters' opinions on abortion are far more nuanced and far less partisan than our typical right versus left political discourse would have you believe,” Rachel Sweet, the campaign manager for Missourians for Constitutional Freedom, said at a news conference recently.
