minus-square@jumperalexlinkEnglish9•7 hours ago100% this happening sooner than later is better for the women of GA. But politically speaking, I fear this will motivate a republican surge this close to the election. But again, in no way would I put the future politics of the situation above the lives that will be impacted right now by this decision.
