a.b. stoddard and larry from the university center for politics. a.b., i want to start with you.ipiac university found over 60% of americans say they agree with roe vs. wade, including 65% of independents and yet i'm often skeptical of predictions about what's going to drive turnout or excite one side or the other particularly this far in advance of the midterms. do you think if the court does decide to restrict abortion it will have a tangible effect in terms of turnout? >> i do. i just don't think we know how large it will be. i mean, what larry and i are watching in the coming months is whether or not this increases energy on the ground and also obviously increases donations. it doesn't really seem like the electorate, although they were off-year elections in virginia and new jersey, and a few others, on the 2nd of november were showing any response to the new ban in texas. so it's hard to see that this kind of constituency has woken up, but if you see a dramatic result from the court and subsequent bans in other states, you absolutely will see a backlash to this. it just depe
