People march in protest through downtown Chicago on June 25, 2022, following the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
But those hopes began to fade as more recent polls showed abortion losing ground as a motivating issue for voters as Republicans hammered President Joe Biden’s approval ratings over such issues as runaway inflation — an unwelcome byproduct of the administration’s pandemic relief measures — and a perceived rise in crime rates.
