After several states passed pro-life laws this week, Democrats are desperately stabbing around trying to find out why this is happening.
California Sen. and presidential candidate Kamala Harris thinks she’s got it.
Let’s elect more women. https://t.co/pNOqNXaaLT

This is the ABC News chart she referenced showing the ratio of male to female lawmakers in Alabama.
States passing abortion bans have among the lowest rates of women in power. https://t.co/CCH70ZpbTa pic.twitter.com/wR4ZksNUDw

Which leaves out an important detail.
You understand that a woman signed the Alabama law, right? I think you meant to say “elect more progressives”. And you’re not in that bunch. https://t.co/O1Oomd1rqB

Guess the governor of Alabama, Kay Ivey, doesn’t count.
Like the Governor of Alabama? Lets elect more…smart…women. By the way Kamala…stay away from Joe Biden… https://t.co/Niwy877H8h

But that’s not all.
According to Census.gov statistics, there are more women in Alabama (51.6 percent) than men.
Breaking it down further, there is an even higher percentage of women than men among those 16 and older (52.4 percent).
So maybe, just maybe, it’s that voters in Alabama and the other states that have passed similar legislation actually want pro-life laws in their states.
Just a thought for Sen. Harris to ponder while she’s tweet-testing various positions for 2020.
