On November 5, Ms. Katha Pollitt published a piece posing tough and legitimate questions to prolifers about what we really think, really want, and would be willing to accept as the outcome of the political process. We would like to answer. Obviously, we don’t speak for an entire movement, but each of us has been deeply involved [...]
It’s one thing when the Church urges young women to choose life, but it’s quite another thing to see one woman’s decision played out in a secular context on primetime network television. In some ways, it’s even more powerful, and deeply human. On Friday, Nov. 7, NBC threw a party on the Universal Studios lot [...]
On Thursday, Nov. 6, pro-life activist Kathleen Eaton Bravo stood up in front of a ballroom packed with employees, supporters and guests — including Bishop Kevin Vann of the Diocese of Orange — at the Balboa Bay Resort in Newport Beach, California, and announced a radical change for the organization she founded in 1986. As [...]
We’re in overtime in Louisiana! Because no candidate received over 50% of the vote on November 4, the top candidates are facing off on December 6. The two candidates are Democrat Senator Mary Landrieu and Republican Bill Cassidy. The CatholicVote.org Research Team has been hard at work this election season to ensure that Catholic voters [...]
The past few weeks I’ve been using the uCampaign app to send invites to Catholic friends around the country encouraging them to support Senate candidates in battleground states.

Our CatholicVote political research team has been watching the two candidates carefully so we can offer Catholic voters in Montana a recommendation. Because many issues are at [...]
Six seats. One week. November 4th our chance to unseat pro-abortion Harry Reid from his position of control over the Senate. In Arkansas, the race between Tom Cotton (R) and Mark Pryor (D) is still a toss-up. Putting this Senate seat in the hands of a pro-life, pro-family, and pro-freedom Senator is key for the [...]
The CatholicVote.org Research Team has been hard at work this election season to ensure that Catholic voters across the country are well-informed when they reach the polls. For our friends in Kentucky, we have pored through the public statements and positions of Mitch McConnell and Alison Lundergan Grimes on issues that matter to Catholics. We believe the [...]
Midterm elections can seem like inside baseball – fascinating for politicos, crucial for politicians, but just not as interesting as a presidential race to average voters. This year is different.
