polling shows most republican voters are *not* in favor of extreme abortion restrictions. They want abortion up to a certain point and for certain reasons.

So those polled voters indicate what they want in a poll.

But when they’re told the other side is murdering full-norn babies, they go for what seems to them like the lesser evil.

Yet those same voters elect (choose) the politicians (their representatives who speak for them) who want something different.

Again I ask why a distinction should be made, in regards to voters and politicians, when discussing party. Seems to me like both groups, voters and politicians, say one thing and do another.

As Maya Angelou once said, “When someone tells you who they are, believe them.”

Politicians are the elected representatives of the voters. If the politicians want something their voters don’t then why are they being elected.
