Dems Won Independent Votes on Abortion; ‘Women Went Crazy’: Obama Official

After several surprising wins for Democrats Tuesday night, a former campaign manager for President Barack Obama said that the left can thank the issue of abortion for driving voter turnout and swaying independent voters in this year’s midterms.

He added that based on several exit polls, Democrats won over independent voters as well, which “no poll saw coming.” (Read more from “Dems Won Independent Votes on Abortion; ‘Women Went Crazy’: Obama Official” HERE)
