The 2022 election was certainly disappointing—especially for the cause of life, as we saw pro-abortion ballot initiatives pass while pro-life ones failed.
 
But there were bright spots—and we can learn important lessons from them. 
 
In Ohio, Governor Mike DeWine won by 25 points after signing a heartbeat law. In Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis won by 19 points after signing a pain-capable law. Senator Marco Rubio was re-elected by 16 points after expressing strong support for a federal pain-capable law. Governors Brian Kemp in Georgia and Greg Abbott in Texas both won decisive victories after signing heartbeat laws.
 
When pro-lifers highlight how extreme the pro-abortion Left is, pro-lifers win.
 
As we head into the 2024 contest, we need to persuade our neighbors about the dignity of the life in the womb, and we need candidates who pledge to protect life at both the state and federal levels. Most important, we need to highlight the abortion extremism of the Left.
