OK All you Americans...time to reject McCain! (I know the puns are over the top, but I couldn't help myself. If I've lost you...read the lyrics). We recently released a poll of swing voters from 12 presidential battleground states. These swing voters are pro-choice Independent and Republican women, and what's 'swinging' them from McCain to Obama is ...

I’m excited to announce that today, NARAL Pro-Choice America PAC is endorsing Sen. Barack Obama for president! We have been so fortunate to have two fully pro-choice candidates running for the Democratic nomination, and we praised both Sen. Clinton and Sen. Obama for their leadership in standing up for women’s reproductive rights. But o...

La-zy vo-ter, n., One who, when voting in a primary election, votes only for a presidential candidate, ignoring all other state and local races. See voter apathy, not a good idea, please don't do this. I know a lot of folks are getting sick of elections already - but the primaries aren't over yet! North Carolina and Indiana head to the polls this co...

Hmm...John Stewart isn't shocked that abstinence-only education doesn't work either. Watch the video here. Did we mention that and $1.5 billion in taxpayer money has been spent on these ineffective, inaccurate, and ludicrous programs? ("But apparently teenagers still want to do it"). I love that John pulled out Rep. John Duncan's (R-TN) mind-blow...

Of course they shouldn't. Do burglary victims have to pay for their home to be fingerprinted? Do the families of homicide victims have to put down a credit card to ensure that the proper evidence will be collected? No. So then why, in North Carolina, are rape survivors being put through further stress by being forced to pay for the evidence against the...

Why aren't YOU supporting McCain? Because he wants to overturn Roe? Is against comprehensive sex ed? Votes against prevention measures? All of the above? It seems that many voters have their own story about John McCain - like how they used to support him for various reasons, but then came to realize his not-so-moderate positions on choice, for example. ...

There was a great blog post written today on BlogHer.com about McCain's record on choice (horrible). The author is asking people to comment, and we need our pro-choice activists to speak up!! She's asking: So, what do you think? Is John McCain a pro-choice Republican? Or, is he a card-carrying pro-life conservative? If elected, would he be a...
